A Two-Act Play

Not the most original thought I've ever had and, I'll admit, nor the most cheering or cheerful but I woke up yesterday to the realization that for the first half of your life, people tell you what to do.

“Life's but a walking shadow, a poor player,
That struts and frets his hour upon the stage,
And then is heard no more. It is a tale
Told by an idiot, full of sound and fury,
Signifying nothing.”
Sounds a lot like here. -bill kenny
