dear Jacob... “straws for drinking in the mirage...”. if we remember back to grade school and high school... all the tears because we had a crush on someone. I would go home and cry. But that is the way we are made... for love and affection. Now I smile and remember. truly, Pat
Oh yeah, I've got enough in my background to recognize this. I see and have seen people destroy themselves or watch loved ones do it to themselves. The picture, in the end, is never a happy one.
