I post a quote just about every day on my forum

This one just struck a chord with me. Wisdom is so profound, the lessons learned from those who passed before us.

When wealth is lost, nothing is lost; when health is lost, something is lost; when character is lost, all is lost. The greatest legacy one can pass on to one's children and grandchildren is not money or other material things accumulated in one's life, but rather a legacy of character and faith.

Can't remember where I read/found this one, but it resonated with me:

"I have never been rich, not even close. Those of us who grew up with nothing were never affected too much by the economic ups and downs. Just appreciative of what we have and everything we accomplish".

Says the guy who spent how many hours in the air?, yours are probably still ringing…lol
15,000+ but who counts?
Actually, I lost my right eardrum when a 105mm went off nearby (No hearing protection). Then there are thousands of hours hanging below beating rotor blades or sitting in front of whining turbine engines. Not hearing well is not so bad. I can pretend not to hear things sometimes, and pretend not to hear when some moron is saying something they think I cannot hear ;-)
