HomeMy WebLinkAboutClinton News-Record, 1970-05-21, Page 3It is One of those borte-tired type days for me. I feel like a chessman on a board, being pushed and pulled every which way and never really having time to relax and do just as Hike to do., suppose We all get this feeling, especially in a day and an age when life is just one round of running andracing. For what? Who knows? On a day like this though, everything gets to me. My morale is so low that nothing can draw me out of the doldrums,- I see we are about to have other mail strike. Whoopee. I'm not saying the mailmen on't deserve a raise because I'm of familiar with their pay hedules or the financial strain hey are under, What I do know s that the postal employees have 'cked a poor time to bargain or more money. With jobs etting scarcer and the whole ountry caught in a mild kind of ecession, doubt that the mail arriers are going to get much ympathy for their cause. The prospect of a mail strike oesn't really make me happy,I ave a film away to be eveloped and it is somewhere in ransit. But it doesn't really orry me a great deal either. If he mail doesn't get through, I on't know about all the errible things that will happen o me if I don't pay my bills nd I won't be receiving those othersome notes advising me hat so-and-so is having a lasticware demonstration and ants me to come early and buy ots. The good news that Canada's tajor banks will stop charging xc flange on out-of-town heques should have brought me omentary elation but I felt ery little excitement. It could e because I have very few ut-of-town cheques to bother bout; or maybe it is because I ave learned that when you get omething for nothing it winds p costing you twice as much in he end. I see some of the banks have 'ready indicated they may have o adjust their service charges to ffset the loss. That's not urprising. What's more, I'm just essimistje s•enough to ..spreclict flat ifAdi;krice s Charges,* ncreased, they will raised slough to compensate for a few ther things which before this BROWNIE'S DRIVE-IN THEATRE CLINTON Box Office Opens at 8:00 p.m. FIRST SHOW AT DUSK WED. - THURS. - FRI.

S, threats; South Vietnamese launch drive on Cambodia; National Guard alerted after Ohio student riot; Racial prejudice, said increasing in Britain; Quebec teachers seek French-only legislation; Jobless figures rise despite spring pattern; final try in Horsburgh case fails, They go on and on and on o ._ Also in today's paper I've come across the tragic story of two kids who have drowned in a Manmade lake. One of the youngsters was the daughter of an acquaintance of mine. She was also a classmate of my son at one time. I recall that this same family has known great grief this year already. Another son died prematurely a few months ago of an illness which is usually considered "simple". One would not expect complications. I wonder why it is that God expects some people to bear up under so much sadness. Although I am convinced of His wiarinins 1 sometimes wish. 'the hulrtan body possessed automatic shut-off .sa",vitelt that could black out all the unpleasantness in this world, even for:a clay or SP,,NigSt time enough to permit restoration. of the mind and the gathering of fresh strength and courage. Of course this cannot be so. Yet on a day like today when I'm obsessed with this bleak forlorn attitude; I would actually welcome a respite .from reality. My mind is flying now to a -concert I heard a few days ago with about 30 voices singing in perfect harmony for an entire evening. I remember thinking how good it would be if I could carry that sound around in my heart forever, for during the concert I felt like a new person filled with hope and expectations for a brighter future. If I've depressed you I'm sorry, If I've caught your mood, I'm even more sorry. But if you have never experienced the kind of black moments I'm describing here, I'm sorriest of all because you have missed one of the most mindlexpanding blessings this lite has to offer.
