I am getting older and it's hard to think on how many bad things I have experienced.\
I'm sorry.  It sounds like you had a tough life.
Oh I have. I always maintained my glass half full though as so many have it worse! But it does get harder as the years go on. Life really doesn't always turn out how you think it will or how you want. It's a series of unfortunate and traumatic events a lot.
I could not have said it better myself.
