What do you do when someone buys you a really expensive gift? I'm overwhelmed at this gift that my girlfriend got me. I love it, but at the same I feel some what guilty because of how expensive it is.
A friend of mine called me today. She's been diagnosed with colon cancer. It runs in her family. I had no really words for her. I think they've caught it early, which is good, better than my dad's circumstances, but I don't think there is anything anyone can tell her that will make her feel better. I tried, but I feel like I failed.
It's days like these when the Yeats poem the Second Coming comes to mind. "Things fall apart; the center cannot hold; Mere anarchy is loosed upon the world"
