Read a recent article on how the prices of cancer drugs is very high despite them guranteeing only a few weeks of life. Its difficult to imagine what it must be like to not have enough money to pay for a few weeks of life. The despair of knowing that depite the drug life may be only a few weeks longer, where every minute would hopefully last an eternity and every day even longer. A way of living when every moment of time is as valuable as life itself and where the only thing that one really wants is to just be alive. No more. Not the riches and luxuries we crave and pursue so zealously, not the hatred we choose to let fester against some, not anything ever defined by man. Man in his ultimate quest for happiness forgot what it really felt like. It was far more elemental and simple than ever thought. A deep breath, a pleasant smell, a warm body besides you, a comfortable bed, love in the heart, a full stomach and a body that works perhaps rank among the most basic sources of happiness. Its somehow not that easy anymore. Or is it? Posted by Picasa
