haiku: greive not

Grieve not it's passing
For pleasure and joy are but
as a snowy yard.

Life Changing Events

The question was raised: Was there an event that radically changed your life?

No. There isn't any single event that stands out as a point where I was different afterwards. Instead my life has proceeded like that game where there's a board that stands upright, or nearly so, with pegs all over and a marble is dropped and bounces around as it proceeds. Each peg causes a slight change in direction but nothing radical. No peg will send the marble to the other side of the board or back towards the top.

Divorce, marriage, job losses, making friends, losing friends, etc…all these things brought me to where this place (emotionally, physically, mentally, socially, etc…). But no single event stands out as significantly transformational
