Hi Chewie!

I'm thinking you're a bit of a philosopher, Jeep.


Me? I'm not so sure about that. I just ramble on a bit and what's in my head tends to fall out, often without a filter...

I believe this is like a death. You need to go through all the emotional phases. Right now those memories are raw and so sometimes they may hurt. Eventually, when those memories come up again, you'll remember them fondly but with little emotion.


I like this analogy, Chewie! I guess they are still kind of raw. And the fact that I can look at those pictures and not go apeshit is proof of what you're saying. Although there is pain still attached, its not near the level it used to be. Granted, there are some pictures that bring about anger, but that's fading, too.

Make new and happy memories, Jeep. That's how you'll come out on the other side.


I'm trying, Chewie. I'm trying.

PS, remind me of this when I find myself on a down slope again


You can count on it, my friend.


There are moments in this life when you are so confident in the rightness of your actions, that not even for a second do you consider the option that you might be wrong.
