There was a report of a man in northern Washington a few years ago having a heart attack on the trail and dying.? I thought of how I hope that when my time comes, it will be doing something I love, and not in a hospital or old people's home or on the freeway, or by a bus crossing a street in downtown LA.? Of course, we don't always have a choice in this matter, other than spending the majority of our lives actually doing what we love to do.? 

One day at a time, one step at a time, one foot in front of the other.? It's rather simple when you think of it.

Sooner or later, every one of us will live our last day.  We all die--it's just 
a question of when and how and I think it really comes down to whether we die 
doing something or die doing nothing.  Personally, I'd rather die doing 
something!  It's been said that we often regret the things we didn't do more 
than the things we did do.  Sure, often discretion is the better part of valor, 
but on the other hand, you only live once!
