Never bear more than one trouble at a time. Some people bear three kinds - all they have had, all they have now, and all they expect to have.
Sylacauga isn't immune to bad times any more than any other small town in America right now. Just this week, we lost another 240 jobs in an established printing business. Most of these folks had worked for 20 to 30 years. Some were just months short of retirement. Now all that is lost. Right now I am wondering what the future is for the hospital. We have been told we are $800,000 below budget in the first quarter this year. I don't know how we overcome that. Who knows where we will be in a short time. It begins to cause me worry. Not worry as to how we will make it but the shame for losing all I've worked for.
'For we are mistaken when we look forward to death; the major portion of death has already passed. Whatever years be behind us are in death's hands.' Seneca
