[b]"Above a certain age, everybody had been, at least once, put down by life and by our own mistakes.
Everybody, above a certain age, become more cautious and a bit esceptic.
Everybody had felt fear and stepped back, so when had no other choice as when was too tired for another fight.
But there is a worst risk, of wich we all should be aware.
When we embellish our cowardice and call it wisedom, that is when we are defeated"

Once at a restaurant, we were served by a handsome waiter, I said to Hazel, "He is quite good looking isn't he Hazel?" she replied, "Yes dear, both coming and GOING" LOL
