When everything is at risk, good judgment, not haste, makes the difference between life and death. Panic is the enemy.

    Greg nails it. Emotions can surely be the enemy of reason, and quite often are, right? Who among us hasn’t proven the aphorism true, likely on multiple occasions?

    Deborah, I don’t know if you take requests on this site; but I would love to see a collage of your photographs, or some such visual feast of your choosing, on a future post. As John Lennon sang, “I’m not the only one.” Any chance?

      What a nice compliment, Randall. I’ll give that some thought. Maybe one of just the porches I’ve used here. Thanks for the idea.
      BTW, anytime you want to write something for PS again, feel free to jump in.
