This is one awesome mid-life crises! 😉 Well said about our bonding here! Yes, there's no physical and socialeconomic status and other barriers to hinder our enjoyment of each other's company and our show! Very glad we are all here together!

@Ami

Same with me too. My family and friends can't relate with me! 😔 Oh no, your sister said that about our handsomeji?!

BD Thank You and Wiwy, I really am not that strong but I do believe in the alleviation of pain in the afterlife. That gives my heart ease. Your poem is just beautiful and I will use it at my mom's service thank you!

katelyn,

i read your note on missing your father. i am sad for all of us who have been through loss. death. was 33 years this 18 january that my father walked out on a friday morning touched by hatred and madness, and never came back home. killed by people he loved and worked with, believed in entirely. for he the individual represented a group that got to be hated in that place at that time. i was 19, my mum 43, bros 17 and 15. had no idea what to even make of this thing called death.

many thoughts have gotten processed, life has taken us on its course, a spectacular mother has guarded us from the worst of it. now she is gone these past 6 years, my youngest bro gone the year i turned 50. everything is here yet something is utterly not here. not a day goes by that some stray thought of my dad doesn't pass through my mind. last night i met a french geophysicist who is at present studying major earthquakes in india, including the 1950 quake of assam, where i grew up, where my dad worked as a petroleum geologist, starting out in the digboi oil fields, the first oil fields of india. coincidence of course, but it felt as though my dad was right next to me, clean, innocent, energetic, always with a dream of the future, the new.

coming to work, sitting in the cab, was thinking of your dad, cynthia's mum and dad, and suddenly hardened criminal me, felt tears down a cheek. that pain of loss is the same i guess. it is also i suppose a gift of life.

and somehow, i don't think it's all over. there seems to be something there... too many of us have felt it for it to be just wishful thinking.

take care.

SUPRIYA🤗 MANY MANY HAPPY RETURNS OF YOUR BIRTHDAY MAY GOD BLESS YOU
