Mostly I don't think about it much until/unless I see an In Memoriam and then I realize time (however illusory) is going by too fast and I can't do a thing about it.

So it's your turn to start one. What angle could you pursue that would make it different?
Harry Truman said, "A pessimist is one who makes difficulties of his opportunities and an optimist is one who makes opportunities of his difficulties." Was he right?

How did you handle the emotion at the time and how did you resolve it? I am dealing with a betrayal that involves a sibling.

As such and not as their sons or daughter?My feelings would get hurt evertkme he did that.NOTE: Glis shoved me a thought a had not considered. What if all parties involved can actually get along and therrs and active ex father in this kids life. Should this step father call the kid son? Or.step son.?Good point Gliss. less

Someone who shows genuine remorse, and is willing to pay whatever reparations necessary. Otherwise... What good is it to forgive someone who feel he.hasn't done any wrong?.How bout you, forgive.and.move on, or hold the grudge even if you end up taking it to the grave? less
