That's reasonable.

And beyond that, we just don't know when our number is going to come, be it in our bathroom or on an exotic vacation.

I think about those Boy Scout leaders and it makes me more aware of living in the now.

Exactly. Even after 9-11, I refused to be afraid to travel. I had a trip already planned for October of that year, and I told my traveling companion if she was too scared to fly, she could stay home, but I was still going. We both went and had a good time. I refuse to cower in a corner because something "might" happen.

I feel bad for those scout leaders. Tragic. But being a Scout leader involves loving what you do. Would that we could all be called by our Maker doing something we love.
