Shame is good.

Glad to hear it, cause so many people I know operate under a cloud of shame rooted deep in their pasts. Myself included, at times.

This writer says we are all too young to feel old.

Ok, I’ll give him that. Yet it makes me wonder how old you feel you are? It doesn’t really matter, because it’s a fact that you are a certain number of years along the road. There’s no changing that, despite the billions of dollars spent to convince us that age is a pliable, manipulatable, in fact, reversible condition. (That is, if you believe in the construct of time.)

Maybe spend some of those billions on better, more accessible healthcare. It turns out that the current “free” healthcare some have costs a hell of a lot:
