Just A Thought ~ GOOD OLD DAYS?

"When I hear somebody sigh that 'Life is hard,' I am always tempted to ask, 'Compared to what?' "

~ Sidney J. Harris, 1917 - 1986, American Newspaper Columnist ~

"Stop the world, I want to get off!"

Life is what it is, a grab-bag of many things and many shades, not just of blackand- white. We complain and say it's hard and unfair when it doesn't go as we wish, but forget about this when things start to get better, and then we want to stay on and continue the ride. And whoever said that life should be easy anyway? It sounds like an election promise, doesn't it? And most of us know how they are usually just a lot of hot air!

We probably would not like to live in the Middle Ages, for just one example, when life was much more precarious than it is now, and people believed that sickness and disease was caused by demons ~ and no social-security systems, either!
