Why do bad things happen to good people?

Many elders find comfort with a recliner rocker with heat and massaging.
They can rest in them several times a day, even sleep for hours and maybe
then go to bed. Many have early morning routines while others are 9 ish risers.
Some who worked many different shifts have varying routines. The varying
positions of the chair seem comforting to them.

They also love the soaker hot tub hours. I remember the YMCA of my younger
days and the seniors in the training area, hot tubs, messages, Whirlpool delights.
It was $6 / $9 a month for the men's memberships then. May approach $100 now?

A Deck Spa is a great thing with hot water pumping thru it.

We have the spa and large soaker tub, water bill goes up too.

I didn't realize this was an older thread. Maybe some of my thoughts have been brought up already.

Like...I just backed into a parked pickup truck in town. I wasn't looking in my mirrors and turned my head to see. I thought I was fine then bang! I left the scene and thought about not dealing with it, but I went back. Found the owner inside the car repair shop. He didn't mind the little scrape, and his friend at the shop said he use a couple sheet metal screws to attach the wheel guard piece. He said it was "good". Lucked out on that one. Sh#t happens! :eek:

You realized it's time to quit driving around in parking lots too.

Ridiculous choices for my maiden name. I don't get it. Given about 20 choices, most with crosses, which is, as I said, ridiculous as my maiden name is among the first of the last names assigned to Jews.

My married name, which I use, makes more sense and is similar, though not the same, to the Coat of Arms I discovered while doing serious work on it years ago.

This site is really just for selling your "coat of arms" on coffee mugs and t shirts.

Heh. My maiden name is Miller, one of the most common names, and makes it unlikely that I come from a line of aristocratic corn meal grinders with coats of arms, yet some of my relatives have those mugs. I guess it's one of those inexplicable things like the fact that everyone who remembers their past life was some sort of King or Queen or Joan of Arc.

It is more complicated for me. Suffering with very painful stuff is very difficult ...by it's very definition we are describing some experience that makes us DISLIKE the feelings. This is real. Not a theory about words. When we suffer it can be so terrible we want to commit suicide. This is normal also. We see how animals behave when they are in extreme suffering. It is good to remember that our minds interpretation of suffering is very important also, as you suggested. Thanks. :)

So true, Paco. This also goes for non-physically painful, but mentally fearful stressors.
