My point exactly. We remember; a lot of people here...don't. You have to be 50+.
50++ in fact....and I am of two minds about it.
I can still remember vividly my earlier years and cannot comprehend the passage of so much time....and I long for it.
However, there is some intense pride within me that says, "I made it"....and many didn't.
Of coure, I keep this second mindset mostly to myself. One cannot afford to get much above the radar....God has good aim!
