Lazy Sunday # 265: Keep Calm and Carry On

It’s the simplicity that hits you first. Then the obvious truth.

Nobody gets out alive. 

And Worry doesn’t empty tomorrow of its sorrow. It merely steals today of its joys.

Because Life is what happens while you’re making plans.

Much better to just ignore the noise. Keep your nose to the grindstone –- or notebook –- or keyboard and move forward.

Maybe make a nice cup of tea before you get started.

We all assume the phrase kept British chins up during the dark days of the Blitz. It fits the history.

And it did.

Except it didn’t.

The true story is actually much more interesting.

Enjoy Your Sunday.
