"Smile when your heart is aching"
So many of us have moved away from the place we grew up. We have been gone for many a years now. Some of us have triumphed and and seen the world from afar. Some have just got "ourselves into one mess and survived it, and slipped right into another unknowingly". Some people call these people insane, or crazy. I tend to think of them as interdependent they can't think of how to live without another. So even when their sad. They smile when their heart is aching so nobody really knows how they ever really feel inside. Even their own family truly does not know their extent of their heart ache. If they did their would be nothing they could for the person they loved, for it is to deep to ever understand. They do not want empathy, nor do they want sympathy. Their only looking for a bit of understanding. They do not want to get in any ones way,and they sure do not want to be a burden in any ones life. They just want to be remembered for the good they did in on this earth.Nothing more nothing less. We all just want to be remembered for the good. Some people just were put here to care for others. It does not seem like such a big job. Yet in the grand scheme of life if nobody took care of anyone else we would be in a big pile of crap eh. So we all need to respect each other for what path we each chose to do. Like "Forest Gump said life is like a box of chocolates you never know what your going to get" .

Life as chocolates? Well, yes and no, in my opinion. true we get handed what we get handed. Some people are presented with the silver spoon as birth, and others a broken chopstick. Some one famous -- Lincoln, Mark Twain, I dunno -- said it's what we do with what we're given that determines whether or not we're successful.
Okay, all that sounds fine and dandy, but clearly some get handed a serious pile of shit and just can't escape it. You are right, too, Bird, in saying that for many, they just wanna be remembered for the good they've done.
I think of Jeffrey Dalhmer. How did he wanna be remembered? What about Hitler?
Does everyone want what you or I want? Maybe not?
Some dudes want the 66 virgins for eternity. Oh if I could only be so easily convinced that that would be the story.
So it sounds as if the troubled waters of Hendersonville continue to rise. Well, at least you're not Steve McNair, huh? Think about that set up, him sitting on top of the world with the young pump and all, at least for a while, with the old lady back home, unsuspecting. Then serious shit hits the fan.
I know. I'm being callous. Life is very uneven in some ways. I wish there was something encouraging for me to write....I really do.
How about this?
