That about sums it up............ It's time. Been there myself. Welcome to life.

One of the saddest moments of my life was the day I felt compelled to tell my father that he should give up his car and stop driving. He resisted, but only briefly. It was an example of the kind of man my father was.

And it is an example for us today when we consider the peril our republic faces with President Biden clinging to his reelection bid.

We all know the liberating feeling we had when we got our first driver’s license. The opposite feeling comes when it is time to turn it in. In my dad’s case, the problem was diminished eyesight. A resilient man, he had learned to live with many handicaps, including loss of a leg and use of an arm. He told me of a trick he successfully used at stop lights to compensate for his difficulty discerning red lights from green: He waited for other cars to move.
