Nowadays, we all get so anxious if we're disconnected. I do it too. I worry that something important is happening and I don't know about it. I get tense coming home, if I forgot the phone, and picking it up! I expect 20 missed calls and 10 voicemail messages, and my stomach falls to the floor. We're never really disconnected, and I wish we could be.
Compassionate goes hand in hand with trust, I think, and trust isn't as easy as it once was for me. People still think I'm nice, and I am, and I try to be, but not as much as I was once. Maybe that's true of everyone, at least a little bit.
Don't get despondent because of what I say. I'm just someone who's never felt love, and I don't think a person can understand the willingness to work and bend and compromise, not without the feeling that comes attached to it.
I think everything isn't about souls. Religion is all about souls, and we can't see those, and we don't even know what they are. They're this thing that's supposed to be inside people, but what if there's nothing there at all but us, who we are and what we think and feel?
Kabobs with lots of pineapple! I like that. I like you not giving up, too. I like thinking that, one day, I can wonder what Castor is doing, and I can call you up and you'll tell me you got your happy ending, but that it's really happy beginning. Maybe you'll even ask me to dog sit.
Yours, Pollux.
PS: The magnet is to remember me by. Not that you'd forget, but just in case. DIY isn't really my thing, but I made him, and you can call him Pollux.
