We looked at life from both sides now and still somehow, it’s life’s illusions we recall, do we really know life at all? The sun comes up, a baby cries, and a life is born. But at the same time a last breath is taken and a life is lost. We help bring life into the world, we help maintain life, but sometimes even our best efforts aren’t good enough. And we ask ourselves why or why not? Smiles, laughter, and the breath of life help us to survive. We are special kinds of people with special kinds of talent. We come in all sorts of shapes and sizes, colors and sexes. We all have our own ideas and opinions, likes and dislikes. We all have good times and bad times. But most important, we all strive towards the same goals — helping people to live to the best of their ability. 5
