This is a collection of observations on many subjects. What follows is a collection of observations that I have accumulated in the past 68 years of my life. Some are really Murphy's that I have purloined for my own. Mr. Murphy, please forgive the plagiarism. The alternative sucks even more.
Life is just a bowl of cherries.
The problem is remembering to spit out the pits before swallowing. Life is a progression from one disaster to another. Life is a boring progression of time, punctuated by periods of sheer terror. Life is a gift from our Creator, which we continue to abuse on a daily basis until He takes it away. Life is a continuum from point A to point B while looking over our shoulders to see how close the Grim Reaper is on our heels.
