Alan:

I know what you are feeling my friend. I am not feeing very eloquent right now, but I wanted to share a fitting quote from Charles Lindbergh I found.

"Why does one want to walk on wings? Why force one's body from a plane to make a parachute jump? Why should man want to fly at all? People often ask these questions. But what civilization was not founded on adventure, and how long could one exist without it? Some answer the attainment of knowledge. Some say wealth, or power, is sufficient cause. I believe the risks I take are justified by the sheer love of the life I lead."


Regards

Jason
