A Generational Thing

As I grow older I try to keep up with the younger generation as they sometimes speak in tongues. As the Irish say "A speech the stranger does not know." In a restaurant in Cape May the waitress had a prominent tattoo on her forearm reading YOLO. When I asked for a translation she said "You only live once!" Well, with the Congress in gridlock, climate change a reality, the sea rising, Dow Jones volatility and the MidEast in chaos - who would want to try it a second time? There is no second act!
