Good reply Chong Yu Meng, I heard this truism while living in Salt Lake:
"Life is a sh*t sandwich. The more bread you have, the less sh*t you
have to eat." Savings is at an all time low, here in the States, and
anxiety at an all time high. Yeah, I've been focusing on Stress
Management Technique and my chakras. They've both gone to Hell lately.
