Last night I got to see one of my favorite bands, Metallica in concert.  I had a chance to see them when I was in high school, but decided to pass because I had a baseball game.   I made the comment then, I will get a chance to see them later.  Alittle more than 26...

The expression you will only live once is one I grew up hearing.  As I got older that changed to you only die once but live everyday.  We can look at both of those expressions and see inspiration as well as some doubt.  Some face each day doubting why we're here and...
