EVENTUALITIES
EVENTUALITIES
Living too close to the water, you eventually get wet .
Living too close to the edge, you eventually fall in.
Living too close to squalor or rubbish, you eventually get rats.
Living too close to criminality, you eventually are caught up in it.
Living too close to any known risk, eventually affects, impacts you.
Life's cosmic conveyor belt is laden with eventualities that end in death.
Eventualities like "death and taxes" are not comparable, as claimed.
Death, unlike taxes, always collects its due from the living, eventually!
