A Friend and An Enemy!

We schlep these bodies around with us. They are our vehicles, and our baggage too. I am often of the mind that I am much more than my body, but at the same time, like all of us, I am bound to this construction of flesh and bone. So much of our time is spent in the care and feeding, the keeping cool or warm, depending on the elements, of these vehicles.  Sometimes I can't help but think: body - friend and enemy, both.
