| I drove to the Bellevue Square yesterday. I walked into Nordstrom and picked up an order. I was returning to my car, walking slowly, when a lady asked, "Did you lose your car?"
"It is right there! " I replied.
"Oh she said you were just resting."
I conjectured she wanted me to walk faster. "I am a robot." I said. "I have had brain surgery. I have Parkinson's"
"How terrible! Do you want me to carry your package?"
"No, thank you, I can use the exercise." I replied.
I also said, "Could be worse."
That means things are definitely getting much better.
I have hair on my head, can walk, can drive and can talk.
Life is very good.
I refuse to let politics get me down.
Could be worse! How? We will see. In the meantime, might as well enjoy the little things. |

| Alice, Love your positive outlook. Although "could be worse" has meaning, so does, "could be better" especially when it comes to politics. In fact, I'd say, "It must get better". Getting worse is not a good thing. |

| Percival lost his first chance at seeing the Holy Grail because he could see the Grail King was ill and didn't say anything because he didn't want to seem nosy.
Instead he seemed to lack compassion, and it was a long time and many trials later before he was given a second chance.
Just think, you helped that lady in her grail quest. What could be better than that?
