Sorry. But, what I meant was, the older we become, especially as we grow older away from our original roots, then the more we might question traditional justifications for being alive....unless....

 

We finally understand that our only reason and justification for living is to pay back, in some positive way, for that which we have received when we were young.

 

I have plenty to pay back for.  So many kindnesses extended to me during my life.

 

As we age, the tougher it gets, simply because we rarely engage in the things that we once loved to do, such has humping and flirting, and combing our hair, which is not so easy to comb when you might not have any hair.

 

Yet, no matter how old we might be, there is no doubt that we can pay back, and doing this is probably the only thing that makes life liveable.

 

Regarding Vonnegut, as far as I know, he lost his mind towards the end of his life, so sad, really.

 

The worst fate for a writer is to lose his mind.

And, so, no doubt this is why Hemingway used his gun.

 

Some people say, Hemingway was crazy to do this.  I do not agree.

 

=============

 

During this pandemic, I truly believe that we have much more time on our hands, and that we can use this time to do some paying back for the many rewards we have received when we were young.

 

It is not always easy to find a way to contribute.

If someone asked you to contribute, then you would.

 

But, it is not so easy to become proactive and expend energy in order to seek out ways to contribute, during these days.

 

 

 

 

Amen

It's natural to feel scared/worried, however you have to see through what they are saying, e.g. 15,000 per day doesn't mean that is 15,000 deaths per day, that is the number of people infected and most recover so don't allow the numbers to scare/worry you.

 

If you are over 60 like me and have pre-existing conditions, now that could be cause for being scared/worried, however, if you are careful, are younger than 60 without pre-existing conditions, keep your distance from people, wear a mask, and wash your hands often you will more than likely be one of the 99% + I believe it is that will survive.

 

We are all in the same boat, don't panic, if you are worried about catching Covid through the business and can afford to shut it down for a while, then do that if that makes you fee better.

 

If I were you, I would show leadership as the head in the family, keeping the others calm and alert and updating them with information, positive information, including yourself, focus on the negatives and you will only cause more harm than necessary.

 

Like I said, we are all in the same boat, don't panic, you can run, but you can't hide, Please read the very bottom and think about it for a minute or two.
