I wish I had more 'Flea' in me.

I do agree though that for most people fear is the single biggest hurdle in life, in whatever form it comes in. It's the battle we've been tasked with facing repeatedly until we finally find ourself face to face with the final fear - death, non-existence, the destruction of the one we call 'I'.

This is some good writing. You've got a talent for combining storytelling and insight - I hope I can learn from you.

Oh my. I have been going through some hard things recently, and this just about made me cry.

I am from a part of this world where everybody does rodeos. You’re right. The bull riders know what’s going on.

Excellent!

I asked my Mom about how she and my Dad got through the Depression and WWII . ( He was on the ground fighting, and she worked in a munitions factory before today’s strict safety protocols were in place)

She simply said that you did not think about it…just put one foot in front of the other and do what you have to do.
