Keep practicing, DU, you're gonna need to.

We're getting closer to the edge of the woods. A better tomorrow is close at hand.

Smile. Melt. Enjoy. Thank you for the sanity you provide.

Mad Love

If we are lucky, we have a loving family to support us as we grow.

If we are extremely lucky we have healthy bodies and minds.

If we are supremely lucky, we are allowed to get a good education.

And then we work for fifty years.

Towards the end of that time, we usually catch some terrible disease that twists our bodies until they are barely recognizable as human and puts us through agonizing pain.

Finally, we die, and we go into the void naked and alone, just as we came, because the medical establishment has stripped us of all our assets during our final illness.

So, what makes us keep going? What keeps us from simply saying farewell and leaving this veil of tears?

Well, Viktor Frankl said it was the love of family, and devotion to a cause greater than ourselves - the love of others and humanity in general. And..........................

Kittens!
