Quote 2

Another one I really like from Benjamin Franklin.

When the well's dry, we know the value of the water

Or in more recent terms

You don't know what you've got till it's gone ... Joni Mitchell (Big yellow Taxi)

Do we take our lifestyle and conveniences for granted? Do we appreciate how fortunate we are in Canada? We rarely have to worry about our "wells" running dry.

I just got back from skiing. The woods were picture perfect. But we are in for snow, freezing rain and colder temperatures later today.

It's true ... we don't know what we've got till it's gone. Too bad that's just the way we're wired.
