    LIFE

    I wonder what it's all about, and why
    We suffer so, when little things go wrong?
    We make our life a struggle,
    When life should be a song.

    Our troubles break and drench us,
    Like spray on the cleaving prow
    Of some trim Gloucester schooner
    As it dips in a graceful bow.

    Our troubles break and drench us
    But like that cleaving prow,
    The wind will fan and dry us.
    And we'll watch some other bow.

    But why does sorrow drench us
    When our fellow passes on?
    He's just exchanged life's dreary dirge
    For an eternal life of song.

    What is the inborn human trait
    That frowns on a life of song?
    That makes us weep at the journey's end,
    When the journey was oft-times wrong?

    Weep when we reach the door
    That opens to let us in,
    And brings to us eternal peace
    As it closes again on sin.

    Millions have gone before us,
    And millions will come behind.
    So why do we curse and fight
    At a fate both wise and kind.

    We hang onto a jaded life
    A life full of sorrow and pain.
    A life that warps and breaks us,
    And we try to run through it again.

    Ronald Reagan, '28.

    Reagan was so wonderful. I will miss him into forever.

    No.... we need to make an amendment that legalizes the right to stop people like you from breeding.

    Oh Fez, This was thread about RR. I you don't like him fine. Your allowed to have your opinion (even though it's wrong). Next time just say it instead of your lame post.
