No, this is not a political blog; that would be Nonsense. This post has more to do with the Chinese Zodiac than with politics. Chavez is just a well known figure that died at an age and time that is convenient for the point I want to make.
Hugo Chavez was 58 years old when he died. Most likely his death was not advanced by less-than-state-of-the-art medical care. I am 47 today. How old are you? You get the idea where this is going.
Slight change of direction: Partial Lyrics to Pink Floyd's Time:
READ them for the first time or again! They are included here so you can not claim that "No one told you when to run". Read and Run NOW!
Ticking away the moments
That make up a dull day
Fritter and waste the hours
In an off-hand way
Kicking around on a piece of ground
In your home town
Waiting for someone or something
To show you the way
Tired of lying in the sunshine
Staying home to watch the rain
You are young and life is long
And there is time to kill today
And then the one day you find
Ten years have got behind you
No one told you when to run
You missed the starting gun
And you run and you run
To catch up with the sun
But it's sinking
Racing around
To come up behind you again
The sun is the same
In a relative way
But you're older
Shorter of breath
And one day closer to death
to be continued ...
