Salt water or fresh water? Let me know when you find out what you're trying to say. distraction/humor and denial have served me quite well for almost a half century--and it really doesn't bother me. However, if the search for deeper meaning in those traits bother you---by all means---do what you have to to find happiness. Anyway, if you figure it out, it may give me a clue---although---as long as I'm not hurting anyone----I'm not likely to change-----but I'm also glad to have an open mind. i know with certainty--that the answers I've sought in life were more often than not---right in front of me("If it'd been a snake it'd bit me) and deep down I knew the answers all along. Sometimes people just need affirmation. questions concerning the human mind are a mystery---kind of like death---you may swear you know where you're headed---but until you cross that line----it's an educated guess(theory) or a strong faith in something you hope is true----but the proof lies on the other side. Personally---i'm going to take as long a humanly possible to find out---hoping to be shot by a jealous husband at the ripe old age of 110 yrs old. I hope you find the meaning of it all ---here in the living world--I dig having you around. I hate doubt--it eats you from the inside out---unfortunately---sometimes you just have to tune it out like a bad relative or an angry partner. keep your head up my old friend---I've got faith you'll find peace--or acceptance. I'd take either one.
p.s. I'm not making light of death or the search for the meaning of life--just using humor to show seriousness---life is a paradox.
