Some general thoughts…
Based upon but decidedly not concerning current affairs.
Action breeds consequence and self-punishment is, albeit mostly questionable in both severity and very existence, easier to deal with than the “punishment” (mere reaction, mostly understandable at that) exerted by the other person(s) involved. (then comes the day when any- and everything is met with a slash of the shiv. Why deal with emotion in a responsible manner?) Predictability?
My sister called me a long unheard special name today (awareness level unknown).
Tonight I learned that my gran had three children within a year, my uncle in January and twins H&M (these initials are not made up. How funny.) in December of that same year. H died of a fever on her mother’s birthday two months later. I’m wondering if it still hurts or if the six other children ultimately made up for it.
