Today we performed a CAT scan on an elderly gentleman who had some type of abdominal complaint. We told him that in order to get a good study of his belly he'd have to pull his trouser down about mid thigh. He starts pulling his trousers down and that's when we noticed that he was wearing a diaper. That's when I started thinking about how life repeats itself.
1. We're born naked
2. We wear diapers until we're potty trained.
3. We're potty trained and are able to use the bigger potty without falling in the thing.
4. We grow old and incontinent and find ourselves wearing diapers once again. But this time the diapers are much bigger. ( ^ _ ^ )
5. We eventually die and leave this world the same way we came in. To paraphrase a passage in the Bible "We brought nothing into this world and it's most certain that we'll take nothing with us once we die."

When I say funny I don't mean it in a humorus sort of way. Irony would be more like it.

Aging is so beautiful. There are many other instances that are not as discouraging. My favorite is that at the age of 40, so many people are given a second chance in life; to me it is being born again- truly born again. You have the decision what path to chose. If you chose God's way, you do begin from the beginning. You learn how to walk, talk, act, who to chose for friends, how to spend your money, just every little thing comes back and you can grow and have a second chance to life. What is extremely great is that one by one, your sins you chose to do in the past are removed without any stress on you. Smoking, drinking, swearing, all those childish ways are removed one by one. How many times I have seen this. I see the world from the social aspects and learn from street smarts. You have learned to be book smart. Book smart or street smart, we each make a difference in the world. Like your question.

television right this moment is basically no an identical. take a glance at how humor as quickly as replace into. i admire Lucy, The Honey Mooners, Threes enterprise. there is incredibly no thank you to alter this using fact sitcoms have replaced with time. In right this moment's society there is quite some sexual innuendo and exhibit jokes that individuals discover humorous that they'd not have discovered humorous previously.

I couldn't agree more. Wouldn't it be nice if more people understood that bigger and more toys does not make them more important or any better in God's eye's. "WE ALL DIE THE SAME'' Regardless of race, regardless of our bank book balance and regardless of any titles we might have held!!! The world would certainly be a different place if more people understood this on a personal level!

It's called, The Cycle of Life. Everything in this world goes full circle.

It's like a mirror in many ways, isn't it? My husband's grandfather just passed his 95th birthday, and he is suffering from senility. Not only do you lose bladder control, you lose your social control (make inappropriate remarks) and your ability to feed yourself -- unless you really work at it.
And I saw my husband's grandmother's death. It reminded me so much of labor pains . . . kind of made me wonder if she was being born into another world. Not just borne.
It certainly is something to think about.

Could you tell the environmental freaks about the circle? That way they will know that global cooling happens just as well as global warming-in a cycle.

I guess what I think is funny is that life and death are so darned indignifying...

No it's not funny, but it's apart of living.
