And I mean right at the bottom of the bowl, you know? Sure, as long as there have been people on the planet, we’ve had or issues. But at present it certainly feels as though things have hit a fever pitch that only dogs and bats should be able to hear.

I don’t know about you, but every day feels a bit like a powder keg waiting to blow at any given moment.

DeleteNow that you pointed it out ha ha
ReplyDeleteJimmy; welcome to drifting. it probably didn't need pointing out, but I'm good at stating the obvious.
DeleteVery well chosen 'wide is the way to perdition, narrow is the path to Heaven.
ReplyDeleteSusan Kane; perhaps we need to widen the stairway? Shine it up, make it nice, so people will want to go there.
DeleteHA!
ReplyDeleteKathy G; double HA! Ha Ha!
DeleteI'm staying put!

ReplyDeleteMerle.........
Merle;God needs an elevator :)
DeleteIf we had to climb a long stairway to get to heaven, that would probably "do in" most of us, right there.
ReplyDeleteGood one. LOL
Belva; maybe if we are extra good, God will send a Limo.
DeleteHa! Funny about that.
ReplyDeleteMargaret-whiteangel; not so funny when you read the newspapers or watch TV news and see all the wrongs going on. I wish there was more good news to be reported.
DeleteI loved all the comments as much as the post. LOL
ReplyDeleteGranny Annie; my commenters are a clever bunch :)
DeleteThat's pretty good :-)
