    I've stopped trying to find an ideal mate, become a well known talent and achieve something remarkable.

    I keep trying to control weeds and support the health of the planet. Nothing is so futile.

    In the end, all our efforts turn to star dust - and it matters not.

      “Find a mate”?  Wait, what?  You have Ari!

    Few people in the world would agree that their spouse is their ideal mate.
    Perhaps most thought so when they made their vows and slipped on their rings.

    When I married Ari, it was because I'd realised that an ideal mate is impossible.
    Ari is my best friend, and I'm very lucky in that.

    One must accept what is and make the best of it.

      I’ll be there as soon as I can.

    Approx 19 hours and 26 minutes to the Gold Coast airport --
    except that no one's allowed in except Aussies who were trapped overseas at the time the pandemic broke out.

    Dear Sigmund, would that visit be for marriage counselling?

      I guess it could be construed by some as counseling, but since it’s me, it’s more like consoling (or cajoling) . . .

    You sure know how to create perfect scenarios.

    Those candles would melt into puddles the moment you walked into the room.
