To loosen up and swing with the punches--to be able to let go and have a sense of humor, despite the seriousness of the overarching condition--that is testimony to a long-range maturity of emotion as well as intellect.<br /><br />Kind of like being able to dance when you can't even hear the music...Jacqi Stevenshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03471698670217119444noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5034998384799920884.post-63392277830779690842013-05-24T22:34:53.996-07:002013-05-24T22:34:53.996-07:00Thanks, Terri!

I'm thankful, also, that that chess organization had members in it who felt that history is important enough to collect those memories and preserve them to pass down to future generations. If it weren't for that book and post on the local club's remembrances, we wouldn't have the benefit of those stories about Sam.Jacqi Stevenshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03471698670217119444noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5034998384799920884.post-64779079299930271132013-05-24T22:30:11.200-07:002013-05-24T22:30:11.200-07:00He certainly got a kick out of it!He certainly got a kick out of it!Jacqi Stevenshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03471698670217119444noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5034998384799920884.post-34577470283477647882013-05-24T21:47:49.745-07:002013-05-24T21:47:49.745-07:00Ha!
