I am so tickled for the two of you. I am hopeful for your future.
And, I am so damned proud of you, Little Bit. You got more guts than someone twice your size. It is an honor for me to know you.
I was not bullshitting when I included you in a fantasy that opened with the statement... "If I had a daughter."
Good morning Little Bit.![]()

MaverickMan said:Hey, you are a bright spot in our lives, as well.
That is why we kinda rag you about the sittin around. We're concerned.![]()
Maybe you will find a different outlook at some point. Not being in your position I cannot say it will work but try not to look at new stuff as a substitute for something you would have done with Annie but like something you would have done by yourself even if she were with you. I would assume that both of you had some separate interests? And yes I know you can't come home and share it with her afterwards, but...............
I think you should try at some point. Maybe there will be benefits for you and the people you could interact with. You have a lot to offer and so do lots of people out there.
I am delighted to include you in the group of people I call friends.![]()

TheBloozeMan said:Aha... well I will take you. Blunt is okay, I've been getting a lot of it lately.
But what you propose is spooky business for me. And frankly, too much work, specially when at the absolute very pinacle of the best, the result would be a consolation prize, second best - and far, far short of the mark.
You may argue that I don't know that.
I would argue that neither do you.
And what if I am wrong, and you are right. There is something out there that will be just dandy and I will be so glad that I am there. Then that puts me in the position of celebrating Anne's death.
"I sure am glad my wife died, or I wouldn't have had a chance to meet you/do this/try that supply your own whatever." I consider any good thing from this point to be some sort of justification of her death and I don't want to be a part of ever thinking that or actually saying that.
And the more uncharitable would contend that I am either hiding, or being lazy. No arguement there. I would agree. Probably because what ever is "out there" has no value to me, and is not worth the effort of finding a clean shirt, let alone getting a shave.
And you would contend that I don't know that.
And I would contend that neither do you.
A trout...
(this may be fish in general, I don't know. I have only studied trout.)
has an amazing calculator in it's limited brain. It can immediately guage whether a piece of food floating by in or on the water has more energy in it than the trout will have to expend to get it. That is why grasshoppers, and worms are so successful with them. Land types of creatures have more potential energy in them than aquatic bugs.
I don't have a calculator in me that works like that. I can't know if a circumstance warrants the effort except in an autopsy of the circumstance. Was this worth the effort?
I can't tell from here. But now I do have one advantage. I have history. I have experience. I know that what ever is there will not replace what I lost. Now it is left to me to decide, "do I want to expend this effort to get a booby prize?"
Thus far the decision is "No."
Okay, your blunt...

The one thing that I am truely sorry for and that embarasses me the most, makes me want to tuck into a dark corner and not come out again is the fact that I know I am proving to be a disappointment to you all. And to you especially.ran57gr said:I wish you'd pull your socks up and fight for the good things that life has in store for you.

It goes against mine too, but there is a difference between me and you.TheBloozeMan said:...But to roll over like a puppy and ask to be kicked again goes against my grain...

I can understand it all except this last...
It is there that I blanch, my head shakes and my eyes clear for a second...
To what end? Why? I had the life I wanted. Now I must chose the lighter moments of an inferior one?
My jaw sets at the thought of this... Sorry Macx, this is all we have available at the moment - grin and bare it son... make us proud.
So I have become petulant and selfish. I detest that. But to roll over like a puppy and ask to be kicked again goes against my grain...
And, I would maintain that there is no good thing in store for me - least of all something worth fighting for.

But, for me... any life from here will be without Anne.ran57gr said:well, I once had the body I wanted...
the passionate love affairs I wanted....
the free time to do all I chose to do that I wanted....
the carefree years I wanted...
and I don't have them any more
am I living an inferior life? no I'm not
my life is different, but not inferior
