Recently, this author was faced with a real wake-up call: skin cancer!

Fortunately, the care of a loving spouse, good medical professionals, decent insurance coverage and the grace of God, allowed him to not only beat the disease, but to realize that health is our greatest wealth.

So, for those of you on the Career Path Express™, let this short note be a reminder: you're always going to hit bumps in the road, and if you're being smart about how you run your life and your career, you'll be seat-belted in and prepared for what the road brings you. Nonetheless, remember, too much sun during your youth or other "unprotected" times can lead to problems in later life, especially because Mr. Sol (the sun) is always there, always shining, and always a possible cause of something you just don't want to have to deal with.

Cover up, use sun screen regularly BEFORE you get into the sun, add layers of clothing where you might want be in the buff, add a broad-brimmed hat to shade face, neck and ears, and remember life is an adventure, but no one wants to hit a speed bump that turns into a deadly curve in the road of life.
