About the messiness of life

            Life can be messy and unfair 
and most of us are just muddling our way through it,
       despite appearances to the contrary.

                It is so easy to think 
                that everyone else is
                  'getting it right'
         but this is probably rarely true.

       It helps me to remind myself of this 
           especially when I'm thinking
                    it's just me.

About billionaires and food-banks

I feel absolutely sickened to be a part of a society where I'm told that we have more billionaires per head of population than any other country and yet we're taking tins of food to church each week for the local food-bank.
.
What is going on? Someone, somewhere knows the answer. It's completely wrong.

Another night when I don't feel so tired, I'll write more about this.
I just wanted to register this today.
