This is exactly how I feel sometimes:

*

What ever happened to living?  Being happy?  Life, Liberty and the Pursuit of Happiness?  Isn't that what's written in the Constitution - isn't that our indelible right?  And yet these days, I feel as though life drives us a certain way ... be this...do that...if you don't keep running, you'll fall behind...you're no more than your social security number, your drivers license, your bank account, your title, your job, you husband / wife's job... what happened to respect for being a GOOD person? respect for HUMANITY?  for HARD WORK and PERSERVERANCE?  for simple PRINCIPLES that seemed to be so important in another time?  respect for something else other than money, capitalism and greed?  God, I should be talking...
