I agree that your outlook on life has a lot to do with the three
H’s --- Happiness, Harmony and Health. When life hands you lemons…….make
lemonade!!!

Roger--I used to feel that way most every day--I am a burden on my
family--too old to do anything but drink beer and watch TV. I might as well
die. They have worked very hard to improve my view on life--I am a para--they
wanted to get me into the State vocational rehab program and my attitude was
what, learn a new profession at 64? Old dogs and new tricks, right? Well I am
currently learning to be a computer architect and am being trained on the auto
cad system to draw house plans. I love it! I seem to be a natural at it and
am able to turn out a full set of drawings (8 pages) in about a week. I still
have much to learn but it just goes to show that even when you think you are a
drag on society you may yet find a way to be a useful contributor.

This is how I feel some times as an invalid (or is that invalid as in

thought many times before. Just having a bad day, I'll be more up tomorrow.
"The invalid is a parasite on society. In a certain state it is
indecent to go on living. To vegetate on in cowardly dependence on physicians
and medicaments after the meaning of life, the right to life, has been lost
ought to entail the profound contempt of society."
