Equanimity

As each day is passing by- The death curve is taking its high. What will happen to business, economy, and jobs? The rich palpitates and the poor sobs.

"Dad, stop!! Don't do this", my daughter would plead. Well, she deserved what she got! A sound flogging! Look, it's not like I hate her, or that I am calling her a spoilt brat!
