Ya Never Know

I woke up this morning like every morning with no expectations except life itself. If you want more you need to be young and if you’re young give thanks to the Lord that you woke up at all. An awful lot of folks go to bed never to wake up again. Did I mention, yet, that I went to war a couple of times? Nope, but I did so I have a rather odd perspective on life in that I care not what people think if they understand they are lucky to be alive. Never, according to truth, take life for granted. How many prospective lives never were because someone died to early? It deserves some though does it not?

Charlie Kirk, I found out this morning, was murdered. Don’t know who Charlie was? His wife and children did. Just like my parents knew who I was when I was in Vietnam. Difference is, I wasn’t a very political person, still am not, but I think we all have a right to say what we think. Evidently, some don’t think so and take lives because others don’t adhere to their way of thinking. Kind of reminds a guy of good old Adolph. You know, Hitler. There’s a million excuses to kill and none of stand muster. Don’t we eventually die anyway? What’s the rush?

Charlie never hurt anyone, or so I reckon. Didn’t deserve being shot in the throat either. Nor did his wife and children deserve to lose their father but I guess I think in a peculiar way? Politics sucks and now we know why. To damn many immature children in high places beating cardboard drums and tooting tin horns. The cacophony is deafening in its lack of logic. Still, the beat goes on . . . and on . . . and . . . ?
