Life

I had a man (55 years ago) that could not be faithful. He wasn’t a bad man, he just wasn’t a faithful man. I met all his women and I realized that he had very good taste. THEY were intelligent, kind, and loving. I made friends with all of them. When he died slowly of a brain tumor, we all gathered round. I asked him why it didn’t work with me and the answer brought me a great deal of peace. I could forgive him for what he had done to all of us. The others were the same and one of them, with whom he had had a baby girl, brought him to her home and stayed with him till he passed. We are still friends. It wasn’t the life I wanted but life is what it is and you grow through it. He taught me many many things about what I was capable of that served me well in my remaining years. I’m 73 now. And I don’t regret a thing.
