Cryptographic thought

I am back. I have had the opportunity to watch a fascinating sight. I have watched a person, who after a good 65 years of life, try to come to terms with the fact that she is going to be alone. This is a person, female, as you can tell by the pronoun, who is an adult in name only. She has been dependent on so many others to help her and do for her in life. She has never provided for herself or lived independently.

Siblings who basically raised her, treated her with kindness, hospitality and cash, no doubt, are moving on to the afterlife. That relationship is done. Children are moving away. The circle gets smaller. Significant other is really getting on in years. What will she do?

The interesting thing is watching her get hit with that realization and still she seems to avoid speaking the truth. It is the unwinding of a fantasy. A bewildering story of short term gain paid for with long term pain.....pain she is just beginning to feel as it has become reality.

So sad...so avoidable.....so predictable and boring.

Ciao!
