  There was a knock at the door....

  or more like a thunking sound really, which set our little dog into a fit of barking.

  i crawled out from behind the fridge where i was doing a repair on the waterline for the icemaker, so i could go see what all the commotion was about.

  i fugured it was going to be my neighbor returning my ladder but instead it was jw's handing out memorial invites.. the woman and the young man (her 20 something son) were people i had known but hadn't seen since we faded 4+ years ago.

  Do not apologize for the the truth, especially in light of the way you did it. She may have some cognitive dissonance over this, but she will probably dismiss it and revert to her conditioning. Her son, however, may have a better chance at waking up. If you do call her tell her that you only apologize if her feelings are hurt, but you were speaking from your heart and have no reason recant anything, and as a fellow human being she deserves to hear the truth as you see it.

  I had my gallbladder removed in 2007 as well. I had to have major surgery because it was so bad I couldn't have the simpler procedure. It took a couple of months for me to fully recover. I feel SO much better after it was removed. I can eat foods without any problem, but still try to limit greasy foods, though they don't bother me like they did before. The incision site still has a bit of numbness (that's par for the course), but it doesn't bother me either.

  Thankfully, Spring is finally coming here in the Northern Hemisphere, although you wouldn't know it with the weather we are having. Another big snow fall today is about to arrive in Wisconsin.

  Thanks, frankiespeakin; it doesn't get any better or more direct than Ramana Maharshi.

  Amos, if you hadn't said anything I wouldn't have given her lips a second look. As it is, her heart wrenching story held most of my attention, but beneath that what remained was this thought: what a sorry example of a human you are (that's the nice version).
