Now that I have your attention. Actually, the prompt I have for my contribution this evening was a bit of wisdom by a little boy, I guess about 5. We were at a restaurant and settled at out table when the boy called out, loud, “You’re always worried about money.”
I couldn’t help but laugh some when I heard. It sent me back to the days when my boys said such things. By the way, they were right. Back in the day, our budget only had room for eating out, maybe once every other week. Unless it was Sunday, we frequently had left overs and not many of them.
By the way, the title above is the name of a 1976 song (approx) by ABBA. If you haven’t heard it, you might want to. It has a catchy tune and somewhat humorous lyrics. It is based on a woman’s desire for money. And, as the boy pointed out, aren’t we all interested in money and getting it. Well, some of us like to spend it too.
The big problem, of course, is that we seldom have enough of it. I mean, even the billionaires seem to have problems coming up with it at times. From what I understand, when Elon Musk decided to privatize Tesla, he was a dollar or two short. Actually had me feeling bad for him.
I don’t know what the little boy wanted that made his mother say no. It might have been pie or maybe just a cookie. Regardless, I speak from experience. I don’t think it will be the last time he hears no. On the other side of the coin (like the pun) there will likely be many times he has to tell his children no. It’s just a fact of life. Most of us, from time to time must worry about money. In some cases, some of us even need to worry about where the next meal will come from.
Sorry. It is a fact of life. The Constitution provides us with the rights to life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness. It does not guarantee steak dinners or Tesla cars. For that, you must work.
By the way, some don’t even get their guarantee of life. Before they are born, some thoughtless doctor without morals take it away from them. They don’t get any cookies. They don’t get any pie. In fact, they never get any life. The don’t even get a chance to compromise. Their memories will be terminated before they begin. Planned Parenthood will do their best to see to that, them and the dems.
One more thing. They, the dems, Planned Parenthood and the abortionists all do it for one the, The Money, Money, Money.
