This is not going to make the Americans happy ...

@GlassDog My poor plumbing.

@SW-User Eat some Nutella and strawberries every once in a while! 😉 lol.

@SW-User My poor plumbing.

@SW-User now you tell me..Sheesh, talk about bad timing!

@SW-User I am prepared for what ever is coming
and I wear the whole armor of God
That means my Dad and Brother are close by
have a blessed one

@ozgirl512 Statistics show we lost our way somewhere around 1980
We have been on a moral and ethical decline since
To much attention to pleasure and entertainment
and less on family and personal conduct ,Kids are out of control
I personally think it was before that ,
But I have believed it was going to get worse for a long time
and I have tried to prepare my family for what ever is coming
We all have walked through the fire ,
We just pray faith an experience are enough .but
We try not to count on our own strengths anymore
there are way to many things beyond our control .
We know we are getting closer to something
We have never been treated so crappy for trying to do good before
Now days even helping people ,,they think you have an ulterior motive
Told were to nice ,no one can really be like this
Yea were getting close
When you are hated for doing good ,told this feel to touchy feely
yea the world had definitely flipped up side down

@TammieBear I've been involved in Quality of Life studies with the World Health Organisation and they find that they have to ask different questions in different countries and so the results can't really be compared like for like but just used as an instrument in a single country. I'd guess the same is true for these studies and they have to rely on quite subjective interpretation of results.

@TammieBear you do raise valid points.. But scandanavia send to top the list year in and year out.. seems they're doing something right

@Cierzo Why? What would prompt them to lie? 🤔

@Cierzo
Definitely not progressive. I'll give you that much. You just keep coming up with
these great comebacks. It's hilarious. 😂

Possibly a regressive one though lol @Cierzo

@SomeLikeItHot I don't think it's just them ...I think there may be a lack of critical thinking skills..

@ozgirl512
I preferred our previous leadership when the US used the State Department instead of Generals and twitter accounts for diplomacy.

@SomeLikeItHot I agree... Definitely a step backwards!

@EllaDisenchanted I hope so

@ozgirl512 Even chaos evens out to new order eventually.

@EllaDisenchanted I think it's the other way round.. Order Falls into chaos

@Carver
The yellow van, not even being American just made one. 🤦

@SapphicHeart I see that. Oh dear...

@Carver
No bigly surprise there. 🙄

@Mikemcneil that's profound ...

@Mikemcneil lol.

@Jackaloftheazuresand maybe, maybe not...I think the not well off who are in the majority might disagree though

@kate21 when you put it that way ...🤔

@kate21 thats one way to look at it
Let all the BS control your destiny ,or plot your own coarse .
you can overcome the struggles ,teach your kids to set standards and apply themselves ,and like mine ,they can one day be successful too
And now their kids are on the right roads
It helps to pick a career that will always be needed .but
If all you see are the negatives ,and thats what you teach your kids
You can't blame society ,our government .
I had no one helping me ,and lots of struggles and set backs ,I made it
Not one time 3 times (hard to do anything when you can't walk ,but I bounced back ,it cost me $20.000.00 but I bounced back ,I didn't quit
And I am not saying that to say I am anyone ,but I never let anything hold me down and I always made my own way ,and I have been at it a very long time .
And now my kids are nurses ,my grandson an intern in an aviation program
My Granddaughter earned 6 yrs worth of scholarships in a public school
She is wasting them right now letting her man go after his career first .
But its not like we can't make it if we want to .
You get out of life what you put into it
I gave sweat and blood so my kids didn't have to
And NO ONE ever done that for Me
Now I am paying for it ,but my kids will never know the struggles I have
But my kids are my future
Like my parents ,I will not end up in a nursing home either
I will die with people I love there with me
taking care of people until they die is what we do
Wish you all the luck in the world
Don't look at the forest ,,take it down one tree at a time
never let someone who failed at it tell you that you can't
They are quitters ,quitters Never Win ,they quit

@SapphicHeart I know!

@ozgirl512 😘

@SapphicHeart 💋

@sighmeupforthat you seem like a real fun guy....

@SW-User I wish you well

@ozgirl512 Thank you.

@SW-User :)

@nedkelly ummm, some, not all

@ozgirl512 It is like our very poor prime minister - totally useless

@nedkelly true.. But tbh I think they're both symptoms, not causes

@Older4funEx there does seem to be a problem forcing reality to conform ....

@MrAverage1965 certainly sounds like it ...

@TheOneyouwerewarnedabout Why? Is it debauchery city?
