Charlie Chaplin

Paulo gave us a quote today by Charlie Chaplin:
"Nothing is permanent in this cruel world, even your problems."

It has also been published as:
"Nothing is permanent in this wicked world--not even our troubles."

"Charlie Chaplin Quotes." Quotes.net. STANDS4 LLC, 2014. Web. 11 Sep. 2014. <http://www.quotes.net/quote/2384>.

The quote at first makes me sad, because good things don't last forever, but then, neither do the bad things. When I asked him why he selected the quote, Paulo said, "Everyone has problems." If we can remember that everyone has problems, and that problems are not permanent, we can look forward to better days.

Thanks, Paulo!

Curious?

Here is a picture of Charlie Chaplin I got from Image Quest, a database you can use from the AHS Virtual Library Site. Look under the Research tab to find Databases. You should always give credit where credit is sue to the photgrapher or graphic artist.
