A man lives and a man dies, A flame burns and soon flickers out, And so goes the pattern of vitality. -Eddie Belcher

A really great thought you have jotted down. So many times our thoughts are refined in clarity, but hard to express them in words. Congrats for having it featured in PS home page! :-)
