life...cheap? when you consider it costs around 300k to raise a child these days, no....life isn't cheap. On the other hand, you go to some third world countries and see the violence perpetrated on their own civilians, and you could make the case that it is.
The simple truth of the matter is that we are all trying to get through this life the best we can. I know for myself, the best times in my life is when I am helping others. I am fortunate enough to earn my living doing just that. I get up at 4AM, grumble and complain, drive into work wishing I didn't have to go, and basically wish my life away with visions of retirement....Once I get there however, I love my job....sure, I have shitty days when everything goes wrong, but you have those days when you do what I do. The bottom line is that life is what it is.
There's a blues artist named Guy Davis(son of Broadway couple Ossie Davis and Ruby Dee) who says in one of his songs...."livin's hard, but it sure beats the hell out of dying".
very true.
