The thread title reminds me of the Dire Straits song Why Worry.
Let's all sing along.
Why worry, there should be laughter after pain
There should be sunshine after rain
These things have always been the same
So why worry now?
Why worry now?
I grew up with Dire Straits - I love this one
The purpose of life is not to be happy. It is to be useful, to be honorable, to be compassionate, to have it make some difference that you have lived and lived well.
