I have come to see that it does not matter how rich you are or how broke you are, when everything around you decays and goes to hell in hand basket, it makes no difference at all everyone is trapped in that same hell basket.
The rich may flee to another area and it can go the same way as the one they fled from.

I have also come to see people with good health died before me. People I always thought would die before their spouse outlived their spouse by 25 years, even outlived their son and grandsons and great grand son. They were always sick with chronic problems for decades upon decades and still kept living, even asking me, "why do I keep living, why have I not died yet".

I have come to see that a friend afar, is much better than a brother, or sister, or mother, or father that is near you.
I came to appreciate non family friends as well as down sized friends that are fewer and better. I even came to enjoy not having anyone at all for much of my time it is pretty good to have and very peaceful.

I am going to live like there is only now and make my now my tomorrow.
I do not care what I see I am going my own way period and I like it that way.
