Which Reminds Me

When it comes to the story of the turtle or the hare, I mostly identify with the turtle, seeing how that sometimes fools rush in where angels fear to tread. So, yes, your "up" being based on the early bird gets the worm schemata, means that johnny-come-latelies are left scrounging through the garbage can for whatever is left over. In view of this point, where is the carrot stick for the turtle who crosses over the finish line? Time has wreaked its havoc and with all of the damage already done, the culprits who did that to me can now get off scot-free and no one is the wiser for it. And how is that fair? I think NOT.
