Though a country can offer its citizens
the right to life, liberty
and the pursuit of happiness,
Nature does not.

If Nature has allowed you in,
be assured -
You will suffer --
mildly, or perhaps horribly.
You will die –
later, or perhaps sooner;
You will know,
while alive,
injustice
and resentment.
Perhaps abundantly.

And if you love,
each one you love
similarly
will die,
suffer,
know injustice,
and resentment.

This is the fine print you could not read
when
you were being pushed into this world.
This is what you pay for the show.

How are you enjoying the show?



//////////////////////did you write this piece, about '..If Nature has allowed you in.."?
You put Nature in a very negative, depressive light. Yes, I agree that in life, we all suffer, some horribly, like me, but there are also the positive aspects.
There is great beauty in Nature - look at the sky, the mountains, the trees, the birds, etc., although we are very winter weary here...! They are very beautiful. There are also some very good people in life and in the world, besides the crooks and the criminals. It's what you want to focus on.
Yes, I'm enjoying the show, cos this is the only show we have and we know. Make the best of what we are given and dwell on the positives. Don't watch the news or read the stories about the murders and the fraud cases- they depress you and make you think that the world is a bad place. When a plane crushes it's front page news, etc.
Whatever.
I told myself to count 3 blessings every morning, to cheer myself up. It works.

FDA Calls for Boxed Warning on Gastrointestinal Drug


All metoclopramide-containing products must carry a boxed warning on the risk for tardive dyskinesia, the FDA announced on Thursday. (The products' labels currently include a less severe warning on the condition.)
Metoclopramide, used to speed gastric emptying and as an anti-emetic, may put patients at risk when used chronically or in high doses, and treatment beyond 3 months is not recommended. According to the FDA, chronic use "should be avoided in all but rare cases where the benefit is believed to outweigh the risk."
Older individuals, especially women, appear to be at highest risk.
Affected products include metoclopramide oral solution and Reglan sold in tablet, oral disintegrating tablet, and injectable form.
