Thank you Jon, Russ, Randall and Steve for the fantastic birthday day and dinner. I really appreciate it, more than I would ever try to express.
I was trying to lead up to this somehow, but I don't have much else. I know what is wrong with me, but I don't. I know I am aged, divorced and have a child. I can see how that can be scary and different than other situations. Fine. But, I am aged and learned, which means I am not doomed to fuck up as much as I used to (aka learn from the many, many mistakes I have made). I am divorced, so fucking what? Who hasn't had a breakup? At least we are cool and still care a great deal for one another and so forth. That is more than I can say for so many of the other break up's I have experienced. I have a child. This is the one that I can see could be troubling. This is the greatest responsibility anyone can take. I took it willingly and wantingly (not a word, birthday poetic license). I am not asking anyone to share the weight, but I can see the other side. Not asking in this situation doesn't mean much. If you hang with me, you are hanging with Eva period. I guess that is asking in a fashion. Ok, those are immutable, everything else is negotiable.
Wow, what a day. I had another great one on the slopes, heard from friends near and far, and had a fantastic dinner. I am now being called down to rejoin the (my?) party. What does the below quote have at all to do with the post? You tell me.
if one going down into a river,
swollen and swiftly flowing,
is carried away by the current --
how can one help others across?
