    life is unfair, but it beats the alternative.

  • mm, Ice, can you tell me what that is that you just wrote, I have not been educated in poetry and I am not sure what it would be called.

    It is a short observation right?

    I will try to tip the scales here and see it it brings me more equity or efficacy.

    I am very tired... is that fair?

    thank you so much for the clarification .. I really was beginning to question my brain...

    Tipping those scales is a 24/7 job!

    Like that observation! Tape it to my windshield so I can read it going to work! Uh, read when I'm not driving...uh, okay, I'll tape it to the bridgehouse wall!

    Good for you!

    Yes, life is unfair. But it is probably alot more unfair for others in other cultures than for you, or us. So why not think about others first?
