I wish I could enjoy summer more. But at my age (I'm only in my 60's, mind you), the heat and humidity is just so hard to bear. Last summer, they had to check me for heart problems after palpitations and weakness got too bad. I'm happy my heart was fine, but often I really don't feel good after being outside in the heat...even when it was only in the upper 80's. What a dilemma, wanting to be outside more, but knowing it's not good for me.
I would feel more optimistic about a bright future for man if he spent less time proving that he can outwit Nature and more time tasting her sweetness and respecting her seniority. E. B.White
Integrity can never be taken. It can only be given, and I wasn't going to give it up to these people. Gary Mowad
