Have you ever wondered why so many people run the marathon or swim across the English Channel? And then there are some who attempt to summit the Everest at the risk of losing their lives or at the least a digit or two. I mean, you are leading an entirely comfortable existence so why willingly take on such hardships? It’s a game we play with …
‘What a difference a day makes… Twenty-four little hours Brought the sun and the flowers Where there used to be rain…’ Now when I think of this song from my formative years, I truly understand what it means.
