Life Ain't Easy

They keep saying, the older you get, the easier things get, but you know, I kind of think that the opposite is true. Life is not easy, as an adult, especially if you have an ounce of common sense. I mean think about it, today we are inundated with crappy products, there is little, if any way, to know if the food you buy is safe, is even from where the damn label says it is.



You see people around you getting rich, but they lie, steal, cheat, and are, well, just not nice, and you wonder, how come the bad guys do get ahead? I mean seriously, doesn't it want to make you be like them? After all, they are all role models, held up to be the best of the best, and so what if they take steroids or do other illegal stuff, they are the best.



Take all the Hollywood big shots, who are in and out of rehab as if there is a revolving door for them. I wonder, do some have their own private suite, reserved just for them, seeing as how they are there so often? Of the one I love, is how they get to hang onto their kids, while if you or I did half the stuff they did, we'd never see our kids again, even on visiting day. But not them, so it does make you wonder.




We are all very proud, of how far our civilization, our society, has advanced, and yet I wonder just how true that claim is. I mean, back in the really old days, the rich got away with whatever they wanted, because, well they were rich. Today, how many super stars, how many uber elite, are tossed in jail, or even brought to trial, for crimes like embezzlement, fraud, DUI, drug use, and yeah, even murder?

Guess things really haven't changed, have they?
