Yes, I'm not as bad off as a lot of people my age but it's important
not to dwell too much on the things you can't do anything about and
if you can feed yourself and pay the bills, you can usually find
a little something to enjoy in life. Giving up on things just makes
whatever years we have left unhappy ones.
