Warren: what wise advice! Yes one needn't go to great lengths to achieve

the goal of being healthier. I just took a few days airline trip and with a

little care made it as " healthy " a trip as possible. I packed a snack to

eat on the plane going : fruit and some baked chicken. Ordered non-sugared

juices for my drink served on the plane and ate the peanuts only after

wiping off as much sugar and salt from them as I could. On the return trip

I ordered a salad made up fresh at an airport Subway concession food bar

(lettuce, tomato, green peppers, a few black olives, a small amt of shredded

cheddar cheese for flavor, and a wine vinigraitte dressing) and again took

fruit along to supplement. I was able to bypass the many temptations of

Airport foodcourts, Ben a & Jerry's concessions etc that tempt one during

travel. Proud of myself!

Hello Francesca and CR ALL:

Below is the heart of a champion. If everybody

had such a good attitude, we would all be better off.

Every one of us would be better off.

What Francesca isn't telling, but I will (with her permission) is that her recent airplane trip was the result of some very sad news. Her last surviving brother, who had been a neuro-surgeon in life, passed away last week in Ohio. He'd been ill for several years, and is survived by his wife, four grown children (including 3 doctors and a successful business woman) and his sister (our Francesca.)

While Francesca is obviously keeping her chin up, most of us can imagine what it means to lose a brother. She wouldn't have mentioned it to the group, but I thought some of you would like to send her your good wishes.

Hello Suz, Francesca, and CR ALL:

Wow, I didn't know the details of Francesca's particular

personal situation until you mentioned them below.

I'm so glad of her willingness to share this way, even if

there is pain and regret involved, as there was here.

Such revelations make all of us on this List into

one giant Family.

An untimely or early death (even if a painless one

for the demised) is a difficult situation. My feelings

of compassion and empathy extend outward to all affected.

For each of us, our own personal rendezvous approaches.

Disasters in my own family help prepare me, and help

motivate me to improve my own life.

Every day we can try to live better, to give and receive

as much happiness and joy right now as we possibly can.

We can do it today, and we can do it now, and we can

do it together.

Tomorrow comes very fast.

-- Warren
