I remember one day years ago, summer time to be exact, that I was sitting with my very good friend Grey Wolf.  We got to talking about life and I asked him what he thought was the most important thing about living, along with the most hardest.   Well after a bit of sitting and not saying anything he looked up and said.  “George, for myself I had to come to the realisation that my life is entirely my own and no one else’s. In other words, I have to learn to take responsibilities for all the things I choose to do in life and if some don’t work out, so be it and I have to then learn to be able to take the consequences of those choices.”  He then went on to say that, “you know George, I honestly believe there are no spirits or gods to call on for help, in the real world, you have to deal with these things all on your own.  It’s up to you to deal with your life and yours alone. You also have to come to an understanding that this life you got now is the only life you will ever have and it’s now or never, you don’t get a second chance where your losses are made up for. Once your day is done here on this earth there is no after life as you now know it.  Bottom line is George, it’s now or never so my advice is to make the most of each day and live it.  Once these things are accepted nothing or no one will be able to hold you back from your venture through life.”  “Grey Wolfs Feelings On Life

I can honestly say that I built my life around them few words and looking back, I can’t see any flaws anywhere.
