"HOW DARE YOU"
This Is Being Written?...................... To Everybody That Seems To Think That Their Problems?.......... Are The Worst Problems .............................That There Are On The Face Of This Planet....Well? I Have To Disagree With Every One That Thinks In This Manner.1)...Oh...So You Lost Your Job Today And Now?....It Is The End Of The World For You?
Your Boyfriend/Girlfriend Has Told You That You Two? It Is Over, (Such Is The Blow That You've Just Received)
2)...You Have No Friends Any More Because Time Has Taken Its Toll On Them...And Naturally Or Not? They Had Been The Next One In Line Because Nature... And Its Way Of Deciding When It Time For Someone To Go?
Is What Will Happen No Matter What Or How You May Feel
3)...No Matter What Has Happened To You ...Or Someone Close To You ....Or Someone That You Know
When Things Happen? There Is No Stopping Nature....So Accept It.
So....Getting Back To "How Dare You?".....I Will Say This To You All
Something Very Devastating Has Happened To Me In The Last Couple Of Weeks...And It Does Seem To Be (To Me Right Now?) The Worst Problem That Planet Earth's Humanity Has Ever Experienced In Its Life Time.
But It Is Just A Bunch Of Bull Shit...And i Know It Because When Things Of This Nature Happen To Me?
I Can Always Go Back To The "How Dare You" Moment....And That How Dare You Moment Is This
This "How Dare You" Moment? Was Something That Happened To My Grandmother's Brother Named Henry.(He Was 57 At The Time)..He Had Mouth Cancer And Was Always Crying And Saying That Life Was And Is Not Fair.....My Grandmother Had Had Enough Of Him With His Consistent Crying And The "Poor Me" Attitude That He Had Every Damned Day.
So She Dragged Him and Literally Forced Henry To Go With Her To A Children's Hospital...And Right Up The Stairs To The Cancer Wards
And When His Eyes Saw The Kids?..This Is What My Grandmother Said To Him.
"How Dare You Sit There Day After Day With Your Head In Your Hands And Cry Like It's The End Of The World?
Just Take A Look At These Little Kids
Do You See These Little Innocent 4 5 6 7 Year Olds?... They Are The Victims Of Cancer? Their Heads Are Bald Because They Lost Their Hair During Chemotherapy ............And Most Of These Kids You Are Looking At Right Now Henry?....Will Not Live To Experience Being A Teenager.
And You Sit There And Cry Because You Think You Have Problems?.....How Dare You??!!!"
After That Visit And Seeing Those Innocent Little Kids? Henry Became A Different Man Altogether
The Visit Made Him See Life In A Totally Different Way
Henry Lived Another Few Years After That Visit....But Never Complained Ever Again.
(And?...We All Think That Our Problems Are The Worst)

Spot on.
I've had a variety of professions (military, government, corporate, etc..) and because of that, people come to me as their world is falling apart, so I get this every day from every quarter. My life could be better, but taking into account what some are experiencing, I count my blessings and know it could be much, much worse.
If more people thought that way, I think folks would be a lot less unhappy. I'm not saying that they'd be happy, it's just that, they would realize that for some, it is much, much worse... "but for the Grace of God, there go I' and all that.
Good blog.
