Thank you for sharing these words, very wise and well said.

My thought of the day is like Andrea said; OMG WHY..
I have been to Aruba 50 times the past 6 years, bought a home on the island and planned to move there permanently. A while back I started feeling sick most of the time, and recently it was confirmed that I have become sun intolerant (Lupus). Aruba place is now sold, dream is gone.. and probably not going back to the island for a very long time..
However, I will still enjoy reading this forum

OMG...I am sorry. I hadn't read the entire thread (including your post, princess) when I wrote my previous post.
