    When i read this I think of many things that life brings to all of us. We don't come out of the womb full of wisdom and good sense so we often make stupid decisions whether they be with another human or an organization. We sometimes give our soul and all our energy and then it blows up in our face. It happens and that's okay but letting something paralyze you for the rest of your life is where the derailment occurs. Some of the best music,poetry and movies glamorize people who can't move on. It's funny isn't it. We humans have to learn to forgive ourselves for making mistakes and take charge of our lives but then what would happen to all those desperate songs like "I fall to pieces" or the titanic song. What about the great literature, what would we write about if we all came to our senses.

    I like a line from Billy Joel's this is my life

    They will tell you you can't sleep alone in a strange place then they'll tell you you can't sleep with somebody else

    but sooner or later you sleep in your own space either way it's okay you wake up with yourself

    What does it mean?

    Good morning, dear Nancy!

    I, likewise, do not know what it means. It's a relief not to feel compelled to assign significance to every little or big thing that comes our way. You always express the imponderable so well! I'm grateful that I can put on paper past suffering and not 'go to pieces.' Yesterday I read at our writers' group:

    Absorbed though I am in the moment -- all alone in this merciless world -- yet I think of sweeter days, days when you, my faithful, loving companion were at my side, at the ready to meet my ever pressing needs: those of heart, body, soul. [. . .]

    The above and all the rest came out, and I didn't fall apart as I would have in earlier days.

    Thanks again for your wonderful post.

    Love,

    CoCo
