3. so easy to urge time to fly during the work day, but
even though it may be a lousy day, still we only get that ten minutes or that hour once, then it's gone forever. I surround myself with things I love at work and it helps (pictures of Mrs. V. & my sisters & their kids, two beanies, a globe, the flag of CA and my last CA license plate, etc.).

5. that's what you believe
but, given the temporal reality that perception is all that matters in time, you actually get it an infinite number of times, over an infinite number of perceptional realities.

but that's not really relevant, I guess.

4. I learned this lesson the hard way last January.
When it looked as if I wasn't going to see my kids again, I realized how lucky I had it just to have the opportunity to watch them grow. :hi: Hey bv! Counting the days!!! :hug:

6. The secret of life is learning how to ridicule and belittle others
with style and flair.
