The Good, the Bad, the Undeserving

Why do bad things happen to good people? And why, oh why, do good things happen to bad people? They just don’t deserve ’em.

Truth is–

Bad things happen to good people.

Bad things happen to bad people.

Good things happen to good people.

Good things happen to bad people.

What’s good, and what’s bad anyway?

Who’s bad and who’s good? That’s true, too.

You’re at a swap meet. You look around at the other tables.

At the end of the day, you gather back in what you’ve brought.

And leave knowing you came out ahead.
