You’re welcome johnny...i learned awhile back that everything I *thought* was important in life were the very things that were killing my happiness and serenity...coming full circle, i KNOW that all the bitter darkness in my heart was preparation, to be able to enjoy the rest of my imperfect days, and do some real work in ‘the world’...

Your post deserves to be repeated in its entirety. It brought tears to my eyes. This is what we learn gradually as life beats us up day after day. I am in my forties now and have recently come to learn the truth as well. For some reason, the passage from the bible I most often go to is, “I lift mine eyes to the hills from whence commeth my strength.”
Even as truth and fairness and justice eludes us day after day, I firmly believe that somewhere out there, ahead of us, there is a better world...and I stay fixated on the horizon and just keep steeping forward. Thanks for your post.
Oh, say there...
your buddy johnnycap is no longer with us...
