"I met you when I was nine months old" and "I think there is someone else" yes, life would be a lot easier if we got to wait until we had more experience, wouldn't it? (and I must say -- love the Mole!) this took me to “Dear World” — which I loved!

“I met you when I was nine months old” and “I think there is someone else”

yes, life would be a lot easier if we got to wait until we had more experience, wouldn’t it?

I think when all the smallest bits of us are all gathered together, we'll approach some measure of what is true. But not till then. Otherwise what we have is our one singular point of view, and that's nothing bad or less. It is just what it is. Our part of the chorus. And what's a lie? Just one step away from what really is, is all. We all, do it all the time. Does language give us any choice that way? Always one step behind if not aside. Our life more than words ever will, speaks a truth. So it is. But we write anyway, and I'm still glad for that. Yes, thank you for sharing David.
