..."You can never be made to feel inferior without your permission." I think the same truth holds for being a victim. I don't blame anyone or anything, especially God, for my clusters. When I am curled into a ball on the floor, begging for anything that will stop the crushing of my skull, I don't curse God, nor do I ask him for relief, because I don't believe He is sitting up there waiting for my call. That's not to say I don't feel sorry for myself, and think that it just isn't fair that I get these things when I am such a well-intended fellow. But then I read what Elaine is going through. I read what August is going through. And yes, I read what Carl is going through. That's when I consider myself to be one lucky son of a wonderful woman. Now, if I can just get over myself...
