The Sun keeps doing its stuff so our World can stay in existence. It'll last for around another 5 billion years so barring a cataclysmic collision, we've got our lifetimes to enjoy it all.
Life's what you make it so get on with it and enjoy?
It's life Jim, but not as WE know it.
Live long and prosper.

It's an absolutely gorgeous morning with a clear Blue sky, nice warm Sun and no wind.
Walking down a steep path through the woods when out with the dog this morning I reminded myself of an incident a few years back when on the same path on a dark, perishing cold day with lashing horizontal rain I met an old chap walking up the path. He had White hair and a full, bushy White beard and looked like Father Christmas.
I said "Good morning" in a cheerful voice.
He replied in a grumpy, surly manner "What's good about it?"
I replied "I woke up".
He thought about it for a few seconds, then his face brightened and he said "Ar, ar" started laughing and went on his way.
I never saw him again until a week or two ago and met him on the same path so I stopped him and reminded him of the above.
He said "Thanks mate, I often think about that", laughed, and went on his way.
Soooooooo, next time anyone wants to moan and groan, be thankful you woke up and spare a thought for those who'll never wake again.
It's life Jim, but not as WE know it.
Live long and prosper.

Hi Victor Meldrew - how ya doin?
God has given me another day - Petula Clark's song "Thank you" springs immediately to mind. Each week 15,000 people never see another day, and leave behind a whole load of heartache.
"Thank you , Heavenly Father, that You love me so much, You've given me another day to enjoy Your beautiful earth. Amen..

I don't think I can remember, in my lifetime anyway, such an awful year Worldwide as 2014 and there's much still to be concerned about.
I do think we need to remind ourselves and our young people how very lucky we are to live in this Country, despite some of its problems. The majority of us have work or are retired, a roof over our heads, food on the table and family and friends. You can't ask for much more than that and indeed we are privedged to wake up each morning.
