hmmm.
if i count surviving my childhood among many things, like my booze intake lately, i'm consistent and mortified.
i wish i could whistle away my low-grade angst, but i figure if i'm 'lucky' enough to be on this planet and like you, see and feel the train coming, all i can do is be willing to help folks to love and embrace their lives... and get out of the way.
great piece.
