Personal Experiences, FCBD

G'day Everyone.

It's been a struggle for me lately. Being under the weather is one thing. But the consistent job searching and other matters have also been on my mind lately.

Often I've wondered what my life would be like to live back in the rat race world again on a daily basis. The challenges to stay well and healthy vs to being sick. That happens to all of us on a daily basis.

But what about for those who've been out of work, either recently or long term? Having little or no health insurance takes a big impact on our lives. Whatever it being going to the doctor, dentist, or pharmacy, it still costs money. Biggest impacts are charges by the doctor followed by the dentist. But some times, the pharmacy companies can out do both of them if you are given a drug made by a company who still controls it for BIG PROFITS. That's greed. In these economic times, companies that still hold control over a drug and preventing it from becoming a generic form amount to being a pirate that holds sick people at bay from getting well. Generic drugs not only save lives but are cheaper to live with as well. We still need affordable medicines out of these drug makers. Their bottom line should be "Healthy patients equal productive lives", not a "the longer the sick patient is.. the higher the profit". Moral stand point? yep.

Do you know what FCBD stands for? It's certainly NOT the identification of a church of a deaf ministry, sorry!! FCBD stands for FREE COMIC BOOK DAY! link: http://freecomicbookday.com/

In the next few weeks, I will start up on my senioritis work that I was doing on. But for senior students in colleges and high schools, be careful on your prom/ celebration nights. It could be your LAST prom/ celebration you ever had in your life. So please enjoy your night in a responsible manner!

So enjoy the coming weekend. Gonna be warm. Wish it was beach time already (except those in Florida and Texas already have it).

Semper FI!
