I think at this stage, it's not likely anyone would confuse you with the Dalai Lama after goin through all this. nor should they.

Being a human and all, you have these damn human reactions and these funny things called FEELINGS.

blasted humans.

so you walk out into the street, right infront of a Bus.

WHAM! it takes you... I dunno, 17-18 months to walk again. you're not healed completely, but you have your feet under you.

so you go back downtown, the bus scares the hell outta you.

this is normal

the trick is to not break out the windows of the bus everytime it passes, trying to get back at it for running over you the first time....or three.

you learn to drive yourself eventually.

how's that for some jibber jabber?
