I sit here and read the latest entries by a number of members here and wonder, is life really this bad or good. that some are going through pain and anguish and some are having a wonderful time. that is not to make any of those who are having a good patch in life feel bad about it but to show how fragile life is.

In the past 18 months, someone very close to me lost both parents and now one of their grand parents. I see and speak to them a lot and see the pain and suffering they go through everyday. i try and help and support them, but is it enough? is it making a difference??

Just glancing around my life, it is full of meaningless possesions and clutterd with old and useless memories. is life just a book, a new chapter every year, a hero fighting evil only yards away but your too worried about your credit card bill that you dont notice?

Do you notice the wrong things when you walk down the street, the couple fighting in the yard, the child running away because they have been trained to. i remember the days when your mum would go to the shop and you could be left in the street to play as you would be safe as neighbours and friends would watch each other. but now children are being taught to fear everyone and everything.

Do you take the time to stop and look around, to take in what is really going on. when was the last time you just sat on the bench in a town center and just watched the world go by and realised no one has time to stop and say hi, everyone is in a rush and not one police officer walking the streets.

Do you stop and forget to start again? life is about living and being alive. knowing you have your health and abilities. a roof over your head and food on your table. and most of all, family, friends and the unknown around you.

Do you feel alive? ]]> yoda http://www.chatanplay.com/blogs/yoda/love-life-life-love-77/
