Hey, Kevin that was so funny. But Bruce sees me as a paradox, an enigma, a riddle, and a hopeless case. He wonders how many times I'll shoot myself in the foot before I'm completely lame.
Bruce, you are of course correct. Your advice is what I would give to others, but the moment it's me, I can't think very straight. I know what I need to do, but sometimes don't do it as well as I'd like. Know what the difference between yesterday when I had a pleasant day with the XW and today? I was disappointed to find my XW holding onto a dream that John Mayer is in love with her. So, might as well shake it off and go on.
But you are right. I'll be friendly, that won't change. And I won't ignore the phone. But I am at least going to mentally try to get into the frame of mind that you suggested. I'll do the soul seaching and it's probably time to seriously write down my thoughts so I can relook at them.
In the end, it's not the years in your life that count. It's the life in your years. Abraham Lincoln
It is hard to fail, but it is worse never to have tried to succeed. Theodore Roosevelt
