Yesterday I lost a good friend to an incurable disease. It struck with such speed I was unable to say good-bye.
It has really bought home how much I put the state of my well being to material things, like, my gadget is new bigger, faster, stronger than yours. Now, I will never see this friend again, and suddenly, all those toys dont seem so important. The realisation of how final, and irreversable it all is leaves me with a sense of powerless that I am no accustom to, I mean, I am a man, I fix things, and put them right, but on this occasion, I cannot. So, I hope everone gets there new toys and enjoys them. But most of all, enjoy the company of those who are close to you and be thankful for their presence, not thier presents. Merry Christmas to all, Kevin -- Please avoid sending me Word or PowerPoint attachments. See http://www.fsf.org/philosophy/no-word-attachments.html Kevin Waterson Port Macquarie, Australia
