Fwd: Fw: Bill Cosby - I'M 74 AND I'M TIRED


Don D












 


I'M 74 AND I'M TIRED!!!
.............. Brilliant!!!!!!


 
 

"I'm 74 and Tired" Worth reading...


I'm 74. Except for brief period in the 50's when I was doing my National Service, I've worked hard since I was 17. Except for some serious health challenges, I put in 50-hour weeks, and didn't call in sick in nearly 40 years. I made a reasonable salary, but I didn't inherit my job or my income, and I worked to get where I am. Given the economy, it looks as though retirement was a bad idea, and  I'm tired. Very tired.  

I'm tired of being told that I have to "spread the wealth" to people who don't have my work ethic. I'm tired of being told the government will take the money I earned, by force if necessary, and give it to people too lazy to earn it.      

I'm tired of being told that Islam is a "Religion of Peace," when every day I can read dozens of stories of Muslim men killing their sisters, wives and daughters for their family "honor"; of Muslims rioting over some slight offense; of Muslims murdering Christian and Jews because they aren't "believers"; of Muslims burning schools for girls; of Muslims stoning teenage rape victims to death for "adultery"; of Muslims mutilating the genitals of little girls; all in the name of Allah, because the Qur'an and Shari'a law tells them to.  

I'm tired of being told that out of "tolerance for other cultures" we must let Saudi Arabia and other Arab countries use our oil money to fund mosques and madrassa Islamic schools to preach hate in Australia , New Zealand , UK, America and Canada , while no one from these countries are allowed to fund a church, synagogue or religious school in Saudi Arabia or any other Arab country to teach love and tolerance..  

I'm tired of being told I must lower my living standard to fight global
warming, which no one is allowed to debate.

I'm tired of being told that drug addicts have a disease, and I must help support and treat them, and pay for the damage they do. Did a giant germ rush out of a dark alley, grab them, and stuff white powder up their noses or stick a needle in their arm while they tried to fight it off?


I'm tired of hearing wealthy athletes, entertainers and politicians of all parties talking about innocent mistakes, stupid mistakes or youthful mistakes, when we all know they think their only mistake was getting caught. I'm tired of people with a sense of entitlement, rich or poor.  


I'm really tired of people who don't take responsibility for their lives and actions. I'm tired of hearing them blame the government, or discrimination or big-whatever for their problems.


I'm also tired and fed up with seeing young men and women in their teens and early 20's be-deck them selves in tattoos and face studs, thereby making themselves un-employable and claiming money from the Government.

Yes, I'm damn tired. But I'm also glad to be 74. Because, mostly, I'm not going to have to see the world these people are making. I'm just sorry for my granddaughter and her children.   Thank God I'm on the way out and not on the way in.



There is no way this will be widely publicized, unless each of us

sends it on!

This is your chance to make a difference.



" I'm 74 and I'm tired. If you don't forward this you are part of  the problem"...!!!

Reply to Ramu Manivannan : "UPA Government May Not Be Able To Continue With The Anti-Tamil Policies"

   link to article : link   

   From the start the writer is on the wrong foot.The heading itself says that "UPA Government May Not Be Able To Continue With The Anti-Tamil Policies". So he is under the impression that the Sri Lankan government does not do any good for the Tamils. Again he goes onto say "after the 60-year struggle for political equality and dignity for the Tamils in the island nation ended in May 2009″,now if he means a power devolution or a separate land from the phrase quality then he will be another day dreamer like many others since the general public of Sri Lanka will not accept it.
      People like you always try to blame the Government and the rulling heads but what they forget is that they are been elected by the people who back there decisions.Genaral Public of Sri Lanka will never allow a power devolution no matter who's in power.So stop writing about it either.There are so many development projects going on around the country after the war and if any one could sat only Sinhalees are benefited by those then I don't have any words to describe that idiot.This is not even a topic to talk on the center stage now.

    Tamil Nadu has there own issues but they keep worrying about the Tamils in the North and East. Also they have forgotten that Tamil Population in the Western/South is greater than the north.All these are just political crap which will do no good.

"Fool me once, shame on you; Fool me twice, shame on me".

Please General, we Loved you as a Brave Soldier & the Commander of our Victorious Army. We didn't like how you couldn't get along with the Navy or the AirForce. But, there's no denying the fact that you were one of the Pillars (along with Mahinda & Gotabaya) on which the War was won!

It's a shame that you were egotistical enough to mistake the adulation you got from the general public to be something more than that (or they like you more than this president). It's a shame that you got conned into politics against the very people who made you a hero (promoting you just before you were to be retired and faded into the shadows), by a opposition so bankrupt as ours! It's a shame that you thought the majority view in Colombo & among the most elite in this country are actual representation of the views of the masses (FYI: it's not!)! .. and it's a shame that you believed the support you got from outside was an indication of their Love for you !

Don't do that again! Don't go shopping (kade yanta) for the bankrupt politicians of this country! Don't get into politics and muddy your name forever! Actually stay away from it as far away as possible! Work for the betterment of people from outside (there are many ways you can do that).

Stay a hero! We Love You! But, you don't make a good politician! Sorry!
