When I read about things like this, I am often reminded of a line spoken by Jimmy Stewart in the movie "Harvey."
"Years ago, my mother used to say to me, she'd say, 'In this world, Elwood, you can be oh so smart, or oh so pleasant.' Well, for years I was smart . . . I recommend pleasant. You may quote me." And now, sixty years later, I have.
Or to express it in my own way: Starting a few years ago, friends of mine began to pass away. I realized that, one way or another, the rest of my friends and I may have only a few years left. So I decided to enjoy time with them as much as possible.
