While some might consider this twisted logic, I understand what you are saying, as I am positive others will. If we received all that we yearned for during our life we stand a chance of being miserable because if it. . . . and the Raven said, %!~#&(&#!$! |

Jerry, Hindsight being what it is one can see where they dodged the bullet on what would have been a bad decision had their wish been granted. ___________________________________________ Trina, Amen. |

"sometimes It is in The not getting What you want Wherein lies The blessing" Isn't that the truth. There might be trouble out there but we still have it pretty darn good and shouldn't expect too much. I recall people saying if they won a lottery they wouldn't change a bit but I always thought, it would still change the way people look at you.....Yep we have more to be thankful for than we realize. We really should meditate on that. Great write EBM Eric |

If we had everything that we desired we probably would wish for some of the things to be taken away. |
