I've often thought that people had the idea that the other guy had a much easier life than one's own.

Take my next door neighbor for instance. They're a nice couple in their mid to late 30s. He's a CPA with his father's firm (local). She's a grad of a Big 10 school, bright and pretty.

They have twin girls 6 and a 3 year old boy, all adorable with their grandparents alive. Life is good.

Their mom told me the little guy has developed a kidney problem. It's autoimmune and his system is attacking his 2 kidneys. If treatment with steroids doesn't work, he probably will require dialysis down the road. Gawd, I hate it when children get seriously ill.

I wouldn't trade my problems, and I have a few, for theirs.

Say a prayer for them and their little guy, they're good folks and I'll return the prayer for anyone here at any time.
 
That's how life is. It eats me up sometimes. I have found the banned R word helps, but doesn't help explain.

My two sayings (can be formatted however):

Everybody on my (new) block has it better than me. Until I get to know them.

We cannot, nor will we ever on this Earth, know why the innocent children suffer or are sometimes returned to the place of origin so early.
