“Life is short. Relish it from beginning to end, and share your joy in it with friends and family." by author of poem Sip the delight of life as if it were fine wine. Savor it as you would savor every morsel of a delicious feast. Life will not always be easy, So you must take advantage of every precious moment. Dance, sing, laugh, chase fireflies, and watch the sun rise and set. Such simple things as these are free. Life is a gift, and once you open it, It is more important that you share it with loved ones. Teach your children the joy of living so that Your joy in living it will extend itself for generations to come.

Thanks, Ink. I like red wine but I rarely have it because it is too costly. I have never had enough to make me drunk either the one time I got buzzed , it made my neurological conditions more horrible than ever. As a prevention of cancer, one only needs a half cup of red wine per day but organic grape juice works just as well and is cost effective!
