Yep - Death and Taxes - Inevitable!
From the First Nano-Second after we are Conceived -
The Clock is Ticking Away - to our inevitable Demise -
And - We Can Not Stop It!
And That’s the TROOF!
And yet, my Fellow Pilgrims, in this Journey - We call Life -
We do our Best to Avoid Facing this Fact! Why?
Is it because of the Absoluteness? The Inevitability?
Everyone says: “The Future is Unknown!”
OH - REALLY?
I recently watched the Film -
“The Curious Case of Benjamin Button”
Good! Weird! Different! A Tad Goofy Maybe?
But it Causes one to Ponder our own Lifestyle.
GOT MILK?
“Don’t Sweat the Small Stuff!” - Good Advice?
Hell - I’ll go you one Better -
“Don’t Sweat the BIG Stuff!”
Ultimately - We’re All going to the Same Place -
DEADSVILLE!
Well - Almost! - Some think - HOT - others Think -
TROPICAL PARADISE!
Strumming Harps - Floating around on Clouds All Day -
OR - Shoveling Coal Down in Dante’s INFERNO!
Those with the Southbound Direction then have to Worry -
Depending on my Nastiness - Which Level or Circle?
Of Course - those Travelers going Northbound -
Think - “Don’t Worry - Be Happy!’
AFTER ALL - WASN’T I WONDERFUL?
So - in Between this ‘Cradle to Grave’ Dilemma -
A Whole Lot of ‘Stuff’ Happens -
School/College - Marriage/Divorce - Kids/Grands - Retirement -
Profit/Loss -Sickness/Health - Medicare/Medicaid -
OOPS! FINANCIAL RUIN?
Nah - We Don’t Need No Stinkin’ National Health Insurance!
We Obeyed All them thar Rules - Paid them Taxes - AMEN!
Busted our Buns Workin’ Hard - Saved a little “Nest Egg”
“All’s Well - that Ends Swell!”
BUT - DON’T GET SICK - DUMMY!
Creditors like Wolves at the Door -
Collection Calls - Collection Agencies - Credit Report BLOTS!
Bankruptcy - Mortgage Foreclosure - Car Re-Popped -
Deductibles - Co-Pays - Balances Owed - DOG FOOD!
Yeah - That’s the Ticket - Cut Back on EATING!
Now - Just What - Is Inevitable?
The Longer we Live - the Older we Get -
The Older we Get - the Ole Cells start a-Crumbling -
Pop Some Pills - Shoot Some Juice - Moan and Groan!
“ISN’T THAT - SPECIAL?”
So - What’s a Body to Do?
Accentuate the Positive - Eliminate the Negative!
I - for one - Added some New Affirmations -
To my Morning and Evening Ritual Litanies -
“Every Day, in Every Way -
I’m Getting Thinner, and Thinner, and Thinner!”
“Every Day, in Every Way -
I’m Getting Younger, and Younger, and Younger!”
“Every Day, in Every Way -
I’m Getting Lighter, and Lighter, and Lighter!”
“Every Day, in Every Way -
I’m getting Stronger, and Stronger, and Stronger!”
SEE HOW EASY IT IS?
This manner of ‘Planting Seeds’ in the Ole Grey Cells -
Will eventually Fool the Watch-a-ma-call-its in the Brain -
To Start Believing All this Crap -
And I’ll Start Going Backwards in Time!
Now, first, was Ma the one giving you that picture of PeeWee? that one was taken before he took a half gallon of botox!
Aaaaaaaaaaaaand.........for inevitability, what you expect from a sick puppy that the only thing he does is whining about his disgraceful appearance sponsored by Father Time! But we hear you loud and clear, so loud that we wish you shut up so we can sleep longer!!! :-) LOLOLOLOL
These song lyrics and art are tales, tides and twinkling lights - tunes telling stories of warmth and sun, city and sand, paths that lead, and the coins we can keep in the Karma Bank. Spirit's been bypassed for sorrow, dreaming of a better tomorrow .
