This is in Response to the Questions and Reflections for September 05, 2008:
This question deserves a lot of thought and a good long thoughtful post, but that's not in the cards today! Maybe a while from now I'll come back to it and muse over it more.
I have a poor memory, maybe from the fibromyalgia, maybe from just being a flake, or maybe from seeing what it's done to [someone in my family] to be constantly digging up the past. It's turned her into a monster, and what can the rest of us do, except get hurt, when she won't let it go?
So I walk away from the past , and since the present is a bit difficult these days, look forward to the future, making lots of plans and enjoying the work that will make it even better than what I've been living before.
Still, the present has its treasures: when you've got kids, there are reasons to hold on to every precious minute and breathe it deep.
