On a more serious note...
I can't undo the many mistakes of my past and I can't see how I'll ever have a good-paying job or ever find a woman interested in someone with my situation (very weak financial situation and getting old), but I can hope in this scripture...
"I will repay you for the years the locusts have eaten—the great locust and the young locust,
the other locusts and the locust swarm
my great army that I sent among you.
You will have plenty to eat, until you are full,
and you will praise the name of the Lord your God,
who has worked wonders for you;
never again will my people be shamed."
(Joel 2:25-26 NIV)
