Is That All There Is?

I can't help but feeling the sentiment lately in the Peggy Lee song, "Is that all there is?". Sometimes I get kind of depressed and fed-up with what's going on in my life and the world and simply want to shut down.

I am not happy at all with how things are looking for the world these days. I also have to remember that I cannot change things according to my sense of what's right and wrong. I am also not responsible for what "wrong" things are happening or for what others do. It all just gets very depressing.

I constantly try to remember to do my part in my own little scheme of things and "keep my side of the street clean". It's just hard when my "side" of the street gets smaller and encroached by others who don't care.

So, that's my thought for this early morning. The world is going to hell-in-a-hand-basket and all I can do is sit and watch. It's frustrating.
What do you think? Do you feel powerless and out-of-control at times? Do you even care? Please post your thoughts and feelings here as we'd love to hear from you.
