A Life, Not Your Own Some one tells you… everything! Where to sleep, what to eat, how you should feel, why you are where, you are. Life is not fair, not even, by any standards. There a few that can talk, and walk, and tell jokes. Others can not stand, can not speak, and can barely eat. Empathy for the plight, of the unblessed. Yeah beware who they are… as the meek, shall inherit. The rest, there is a last chapter for that. You may be… “Not Your Own”, Soon enough!
