I put many trees into the earth in Georgia as well - mostly along the Savannah River, the City of Savannah, Tybee Island, and all of those other places in that area. Best meal I ever had in my life was along the Savannah River in the middle of nowhere. A fat old black woman cooked it for me - told me she felt like a "yankee' because she moved from Georgia to South Carolina (literally only across the Savannah River). She looked like an angel and her food was certainly heaven. Collards, fried chicken & catfish,cornbread, and a few other recipes God dictated should enter my pie hole that day.
But I digress, where are you at with you Eagle11? How is the journal. How are you physically making yourself sweat - sweat hard induced, not just b/c GA is humid as H3ll. I was thinking of you - couldn't put my finger on it...got it now though. It was a quote from one of my favorite books - Catch 22 by J. Heller. Not really DB related in terms of story, but a quote I had to jar out of my head with hammer and chisel. I went back and found it. An exchange between the main character Capt. J. Yossarian and his Major:
Yossarian - "From now on I'm thinking only of me" Major - "But Yossarian, suppose everyone thought that way." Yossarian "Then I'd certainly be a damned fool to feel any other way, wouldn't I?"
Great movie version exists of the book, but anyway - are you thinking only of you yet? You'd be a "damned fool" to do anything else. (remember - unhealthy you, bad for kids. healthy you, great for kids - don't tell me kids come first, they don't, you do. put your o2 mask on before helping the kids. or, if you prefer the American Red Cross first responder line "never create a second victim").
Houston out.
