If I understand this post right, sorry to hear that.

You're right though. I love learning new things and being educated, but it doesn't make me any better or worse than someone else who may not have een in educated in the way I was.

Same goes with the kind of jobs people have, etc...

Status is an unreasonable thing sometimes.

"If I understand this post right, sorry to hear that."

The post was just to tell the story I told, but I'm curious, what else did you think I was saying?

I always leave your journal inspired. I needed to read that, thank you.

I know what you mean re: feeling close to someone. Do you ever have dreams about her?

You're welcome. =)

"Do you ever have dreams about her?"

Occasionally, yea. Those are usually sad though. I feel most close to her when I'm just sitting alone and thinking.

Thank you... I'm gettin' real tired of "comin' up" being thought of as if it didn't have its side effects.
