Before I begin this article, I lifted the title off of a Leonard Cohen song called "Everybody Knows".
It is a very interesting song.
It is a song that is like smelling salts that wake the soul up instead of just the body.
When reality hits with a big revenge, everybody does know.
You know what I am writing about.
Problems happen in life and existence seemingly just to irritate us all, and the bad guys compared to us seem to have everything perfectly like they want in the way of winning.
When we cannot get it right seemingly.
Some of you know what I am writing about here.
Think about it, it is the loss of everybody when a situation is so bad that it takes full advantage of their patience or they and their perseverance part ways and genuine quitting time happens.
Recently, I had a dilemma on how to do this article although it has been in my mind a long time.
Although I could not get out the idea to my satisfaction, I was not going to give it up.
I am patiently writing this article despite my dilemma with the format, style, title and subject.
Because to express myself is better than keeping it in, and it would be the loss of everyone including myself if I did not persevere and genuine quitting time happened for me.
So I end by quoting Leonard Cohen:

"Everybody knows that the dice are loaded Everybody rolls with their fingers crossed Everybody knows that the war is over Everybody knows the good guys lost Everybody knows the fight was fixed The poor stay poor, the rich get rich That's how it goes Everybody knows Everybody knows that the boat is leaking Everybody knows that the captain lied Everybody got this broken feeling Like their father or their dog just died Everybody talking to their pockets Everybody wants a box of chocolates And a long stem rose Everybody knows Everybody knows that you love me baby Everybody knows that you really do Everybody knows that you've been faithful Ah give or take a night or two Everybody knows you've been discreet But there were so many people you just had to meet Without your clothes And everybody knows Everybody knows, everybody knows That's how it goes Everybody knows Everybody knows, everybody knows That's how it goes Everybody knows And everybody knows that it's now or never Everybody knows that it's me or you And everybody knows that you live forever Ah when you've done a line or two Everybody knows the deal is rotten"

Although I am quoting this song, I totally disagree with it.
For, where there is perseverance and not any quitting time, there is hope always.
Like I said, the title of this article came from the song, the rest of the song is the property of Leonard Cohen, so I quoted him to say: Hey, the title was inspired by it, but not the premise so much.
