People make their opportunities. And life isn't always fair.

Life is never completely fair, but the role of society is to make it as fair as possible.


The other nite I was coming home from the gym. This woman was walking in the crosswalk and state law requires that a driver stop.....so I started slowing down. I was struck at how tired the woman looked. She had just gotten off the bus and was carrying three bags of groceries. She looked to be 6 months pregnant and had just spent a long day at work. Somehow I knew she was not having an easy time of it. As she got to the other sidewalk, she turned to me and mouthed the words "thank you". I don't think I have ever seen such dignity in one human being.

And then I have to listen to inoys prattle on about let's not pay "the people with poor skillsets" too much money. I know that karma works and that people get what they deserve but these people, mostly Republicans, deserve to get their butts kicked for a long, long time.
