In life there is death and in death there is life.
May she find peace and you find comfort.

Life is like a PB&J sandwich. The older you get, the moldery and crustier you get.
Now, get off my grass!

I'm feeling for you, Golem.
You never change things by fighting the existing reality.
To change something, build a new model that makes the old model obsolete.

Mr. Golem:
I lost my dear wife of 41 years together on March 4th of last year. I still have not recovered from that trauma, although I am doing better as time goes on. Yet I think about her daily. And miss her so much.
My thoughts are with you and they shall continue to be. I know that pain all too well.
Ken Ken, I am so sorry. (I too am a Ken)

Oh, Golem, I am so sorry.
My husband of 42 years checked into the hospital for tests near Thanksgiving in 2012. He seemed fine at first, but rapidly went downhill. He passed away on Christmas Eve.
I do know how you feel, and it's awful. The pain is a heavy weight, and the knowledge that, with time, it will slowly lighten, doesn't ease it a bit right now.
Your humor as lightened our hearts over the years. I wish I could lighten yours now.
Hang tough, guy. Hang tough.

Spag-hetti, I am so sorry for your loss.
As for hanging tough, I'm having a difficult time there. My wife has always been the strong one.

Hoping that you and your wife are doing well as can be expected.

I'm truly sorry, my friend.
A well reasoned argument is like a diamond: impervious to corruption and crystal clear - and infinitely rarer.
Here, as elsewhere, people are outraged at what feels like a rigged game -- an economy that won't respond, a democracy that won't listen, and a financial sector that holds all the cards. - Robert Reich
