LAID IN ONE COMMON HEAP

AN EQUAL PORTION, MOST
PEOPLE WOULD BE CONTENTED
TO TAKE THEIR OWN " !

So true; just as the saying goes.....no matter how bad you think you have it.... someone always has it worse.
Guess we should count our blessings whenever we can.

Reminds me of a story I read about children of the dump in one of the Central America countries. Kind people built a school nearby, but the children did not want to leave their dump, where all their \'known\' treasures were.
It\'s true isn\'t it. A very wonderfull journal to read my dear.
