Older but wiser?

Dear Editor, Mother Jones said “Mourn the dead – fight like hell for the living”. By coincidence, a wise man told me “When you are going somewhere important you cannot carry three cases. Which do you drop?”

Yesterday is gone never to return – learn from it and leave it behind tomorrow is not yet real – prepare to drop it. Today is all you have - do the best you can!”

We are getting older but some of us no wiser. It’s like the words of the song “the more I find out, the less I know”. It would be a very appropriate anthem for Government advisors.
