You told well the story of being too damn tired for this world—I’m familiar with this. And as soon as you voiced “I fail everyone” I saw the truth of my own life—having been told for most of 60 years that I was a failure and disappointment, I’m sure I must be. But the reality is, those people were projecting. They knew on some level how hateful they were to me and put those feelings onto me. Because I know I have failed at times, but I’m not a failure. We keep learning and we keep growing, and that’s the best we can do as humans.

I’m glad Gizmo is on the way. The hardest part of the worst week of my life was the fact I had not seen my oldest in two years and would not see him for another three.
