i was just looking through some posts on here from jan/feb 2007; i enjoyed doing that, and i'm glad that i posted those thoughts/notes there in the first place, and also that i came back to re-visit them.

i found a few gems there; not only the following one which i was specifically searching for in order to re-post here now:

"as long as my wife, our kids and myself are healthy
and together,
that is the most important factor
and everything else is secondary!"

i believe one should constantly keep such things in mind
