Tomorrow, and tomorrow, and tomorrow
Creeps in this petty pace from day to day,
To the last syllable of recorded time;
And all our yesterdays have lighted fools
The way to dusty death. Out, out brief candle!
Life's but a walking shadow, a poor player
That struts and frets his hour upon the stage
And then is heard no more: it is a tale
Told by an idiot, full of sound and fury,
Signifying nothing.
-- Macbeth, Act 5, Scene 5

QUESTION OF THE WEEK 04-12-2021
What are the highest andlowest points of your life?
The highest point was finding the love of my life while in Junior High School and later marrying her and the lowest point was losing both parents a year apart.
Highest points for me would be the births of my children and grandchildren. Lowest points are 1: when the factory closed and I was out of work, I loved that job so much; and 2: the night my second ex got drunk and hit me and I had him arrested the next morning.
The births of my children and the death of my mother and my spouse.
ReplyDeleteThere are so many of both. Let's see. Marrying my husband and losing my mother.
ReplyDeleteHave a fabulous day and week. ♥
I hope both of them are yet to come.
ReplyDeleteOoh, I really like Elephant's Child's answer. Me too.
ReplyDeleteThe highest point was finding the love of my life while in Junior High School and later marrying her and the lowest point was losing both parents a year apart.
ReplyDeleteThe highest has been my son living with me this last year after the death of my spouse (the lowest).
ReplyDeleteLow point would have been losing our daughter. As for high points, i hope to have many more, so i'd rather not pick one from the past as the best.
ReplyDeleteHighest points for me would be the births of my children and grandchildren. Lowest points are 1: when the factory closed and I was out of work, I loved that job so much; and 2: the night my second ex got drunk and hit me and I had him arrested the next morning.
ReplyDeleteI hope I never find out--- that's the best answer.
ReplyDeleteHigh -- Rocky Mtns.
ReplyDeleteLow -- Death Valley. the literalist;)
Lowest would be losing people I love to death. Far too many and far too early.
ReplyDeleteHighest - Adopting my daughters.
