....a 'they say....' moment. They say that if you can remember the 60s you were never really there. (They do, you know. Aren't 'they' so profound, at times!!) In those days when I was a mere child who watched Dr Who from behind a settee, there was a pop group called The Beatles. Have you heard of them? These are the words in one of their songs - 'Life is very short and there's no time for fussing and fighting...' and 'We can work it out,' they insisted. Could they? Could we?
Life is, indeed, too short for all that. On that, we agree. Somehow, though, this understanding doesn't entirely stop us from arguing. Petty conflicts linger longer than they ever should.
Only dead fish go with the current.
