[Nfbmt] How far have we really come?

[James Aldrich]

Hi Joy and all,

I think I would say this shows more where we came from!  Little gems 
like this die hard because they were more or less ingrained in our 
culture!  I think this has to be at least 50 years old and may be a 
hundred years old for all I know!  That doesn't matter really!  I think 
though it is one of those things which have been handed down from 
generation to generation!

We should be thankful and grateful when life is good!  That's where I'd 
stop it!  We also need to learn to be thankful when life isn't good!  
Now that is a challenge!  I would say I got this from where your post 
came from!  The best thing to happen to this post is the delete key!  
I'd give it no further attention!  It is that attention which has it 
circulating again and again!  If you really want a challenge, write the 
opposite of this and place it in circulation!  This isn't worth what 
little band width it takes up! The cup is either half full or half 
empty right?  Well, I would say this is where we came from!  It is not 
where we are going!  I don't think most people take these circulating 
emails seriously unless they have some interesting content like the one 
you sent my way that I need to look at!
