It Sucks

It sucks to be young, you need to learn it all. It sucks to be old, know it all and are running out of time. It sucks to be poor, working two or three jobs. It sucks to have things, with everyone wanting a slice. It sucks how time stands still as a child, old age and time just flies by. It sucks my birthday was canceled, I missed the party, cake and presents. It sucks this world had gone mad, guess we are all in it together. Date Written: 8/6/2020

Well, you're right. There certainly are challenges, no matter what, and now we've got this Pandemic too. Guess we've just got to turn the lemons into lemonade, as they say! ~ ONLY 10 cents a cup. Lemonade. Lemonade. Come get your lemonade! :) gw
