Not likely to rise victorious as Zeus did,
my friend lies struggling with old Cronus.
Gods come and go and even half-gods,
ask Heracles about Antaeus, never win
finally because somewhere along the way
a stronger foe puts them down for good
no matter how high they’re held from earth.
The trick is knowing when to let go.

Jerral, A timely bit of advice for us old guys. True none of us want to leave this life. As a past friend said, jokingly, "If I can't take it with me, I ain't goin'!"
Doesn't work, of course, Better yet to know when to hold and when to fold. I'm sure we'll all realize what to do when that moment comes.
