Life

DO you ever get the feeling that life as we know it can be summarized in a nutshell -that life is generally shitty and the shitty-ness spills over from the current generation to the next generation ad inifinitum, ad nauseum? I keep coming across people with unresolved problems and what they do is to re-gurgitate all over their kids. It's not just financial woes, but things like dysfunctional families, unhealthy cultures, bad habits, addictions, the negative mores of lives spent mostly in drudgery and misery. I don't want to sound too negative (maybe i do sound too negative) but there you have it. What breaks the vicious cycle? Jesus! (said in gladness and not in vain)
