A Quiet Little "Hello"

Sounds like things are moving in a good direction again. That's nice to hear.

I love the signature, by the way. It reminds me of something Laurie Anderson (I think it was her, anyway) once said when someone asked her how she dealt with all the negativity in the world. Her response took the interviewer by surprise:

"You're hanging with the wrong people."

Thanks for stopping by Mike. I completely agree with everything you've written. It reminds me of when I was a bit younger and I was only focused on making money. I was also quite abrasive and mean to people (my initial year or two in this forum was a bumpy start).

I can tell from your post that life experience has taught you these things. While it's nice to make money, life experience has taught me that it's far from the most important thing, so I'm glad you brought that up. I guarantee it when someone is on their deathbed, the last thing most people think about is money. They think about their loved one's and wishing they probably had more time with them.

And I would like to humbly add another thing to your already great list:

4. Humility or being humble.

In a world where people think that having a big ego will shield them from this tough world, it's actually more fulfilling, in life, to have humility. It gives us great perspective that we are but ants (actually smaller) in a large universe that's so vast that's it's beyond our ken.
