Imagine... living to be very very old - outliving all of your family and friends, and becoming a ward of the state. State property. And as if that isn't bad enough, imagine them putting you into a nursing home. Where you know no one, and can't care for yourself so you don't have a choice. Imagine that.. I mean I would HATE being put into a nursing home, that would be a nightmare...and further imagine hating that nursing home, hating every second of it, and then... dying. Dying as a ward of the state.
The state cremates because it's cheaper.
A nursing home. Ward of the state. Cremation. But .. even worse, imagine where old folks who are wards of the state might be put after they're cremated. What if it's in jars on tables in the halls and on shelves in the dining rooms of the nursing homes? Wouldn't that be a nightmare.
Good God.
Posted by juel at September 21, 2004 02:47 PMI've been reading you a little. Havan't read everything yet . Although I think you have a great way of expressing your thoughts, I also think you are very dark sometimes. The music in your web site creats a very strange mood even if you are telling a happy story. Am I wrong in saying that you are not in a happy place right now or is it just the impression I get when I read you? I'd like you someday to write something about the state of mind you are in while you share those thoughs with the world so that I can read you in a way that really gives the a true meaning to all this. While I wait for those answers , I'll be reading you again not knowing if in fact you really are in a dark place.
