Relationships can be tricky. I was once dating this girl that everything she wanted was everything she saw. I guess I must have loved her because I said she was the perfect girl for me. Fast forward six months later and everything she saw was out of reach and/or not good enough and I really didn't know what the hell she wanted from me. Some people work for a living, some people work for fun but I just worked for her. I'd ask myself if my best isn't good enough then how can it be good enough for two? All I could see was the end of the week and yet I could see that the things we buy weren't gonna keep us together. I ended up breaking up with her and met a different girl although people said that she was no good for me and she's making a fool of me. She eventually left me and told me I should try it. I told her I don't want to play around. Like a prisoner who had his own key I couldn't escape as I didn't want her freedom. I just went from day to day knowing all about the other boys. But I forgave her, not just once or twice, but forever.

"My parents, brother, and I left Iran in 1980, shortly after the revolution. After a brief stay in Italy, we packed all our belongings once again and headed west to the exotic and the unknown: Vancouver. We had recently been accepted as landed immigrants, meaning Canada graciously opened its doors and we gratefully accepted; we arrived at Vancouver International Airport on my 10th birthday, three suitcases and one sewing machine in tow. After respectful but intense questioning at immigration, we were dropped off at a hotel on Robson Street, which was then still a couple years shy of becoming the fashionable tourist hub it is today. We were jetlagged, culture shocked, and hungry, so that first night, my father and brother courageously ventured out into the wild in search of provisions. I fell asleep before they returned. The next morning, I woke up at 5 a.m. and ravenously feasted on a cold Quarter Pounder with cheese and limp French fries that had been left by my beds...
Stacey was a nurse so Kurt knew she would be able to give him a pretty good idea of how critical it was. On the other hand her knowledge of medical jargon could make her words seem foreign to Kurt. “He’s sustained two injuries. The first one was right on impact, his brain was shaken around pretty badly. It might have even rotated and perhaps nerve fibers were stretched and veins and arteries might have torn too. The second one is an open wound where the skull broke. The brain is exposed in that area. He was probably hit by some kind of sharp object during the collision.” Stacey unsuccessfully tried to disguise a horrifying yelp that she let out. “It's possible the area around the wound is undamaged. He might be facing long-term disabilities. He’s lost a lot of blood and his blood pressure has really dropped from the trauma. He’s really weakened by the blood loss. Plus there’s the loss of oxygen to the brain. The damage may be catastrophic. And then there’s infection…” “When w...
In 1980 a former classmate wrote me a letter that stated that he was fine and the class was doing find.
