I'm waiting expectantly for the next installment! This is wonderful stuff, gruff. I admire your courage to delve into difficult painful memories (hopefully achieving some catharsis on the process) and your honesty in presenting them for others. Without for a moment denying the uniqueness and originality, may I comment that I am somewhat reminded of Frank McCourt's "Angela's Ashes"?
There is a deep undertone of pain and, at times, self-denigration - not surprising given the subject matter. For the record, the gruff I have got to know somewhat in the past months here on the "Eye" is considerably more - and deeper- than this. If all the pain and suffering you have gone through was necessary to produce the gruff whose posts we read here - posts full of honesty, hope, precise intelligence and deep humanity - then it was not all in vain. It's been a long way from there to here and, to use a quotation from the Grateful Dead (which we have exchanged about already), "what a long strange trip it's been!"
