Better to have lived.

There's a problem.  I have turbulence in my life, too. Because life doesn't flow in perfect harmony. So many disruptions. But still, there are tranquil and tender moments. To savor. I am able to catch my breath. And be thankful. That I am alive and conscious. And in control. If not always. For periods. That make it all worthwhile and fulfilling. Better to have lived than not to have lived. --Jim Broede
