So true, yet, I find myself to be an exception. There's a lot of people in the world who have lost a parent, parents, friends. After you stress out a couple horribe events in a short amount of time, things like relatioships can be <i>allowed</i> to work for you because you won't <i>stress</i> all the little things. You learn to put up with petty little things because they're not worth your body's will to live. Your spirit. Or whatever have you that you believe in.

Honestly, I'd trade it all back if I could. Rather have my Dad than a wife. I feel a wee bit older than my peers, but I never look down at any one of them. I usually just laugh at the crybabies.
