It’s sad how we humans insist on being our own kings and queens. Because we’re so temporary. I remember a song, from back in the 70’s, by Seals and Crofts. It’s a lighthearted little tune about a guy who admits he’s the “King of Nothing.” Since the control freaks at YouTube (Google) don’t allow video sharing anymore, you’ll have to find a video of … Read the rest…
