I am at a stage of life where people I know are dying of cancer and other diseases. They all seem too young to me. That brings one face to face with one’s own mortality. Somehow, this makes even more incomprehensible the appallingness of the increasing number of random acts of senseless violence in which people going quietly about their business are harmed by other cruel, stupid or incompetent people.
Excellent point Cormanus. One of the reasons I started riding even more this year, was because of my friend John dying of cancer. As I visited him at hospice and watched him wither away, I vowed to enjoy each day as best I could. I wanted to feel the wind, feel the sun on my face, feel the rain, the heat, and the cold... things John would never feel again.
