This is powerful stuff. And so true. It is endlessly tricky, this middle place. There is no real compass to navigate this little, not-so-little world. As someone who has already felt loss and dreads the more that I know is to come, this speaks to me. I applaud you mightily for writing this, for thinking this, for making us all sit back, behind our little screens and nod furiously. There is something exquisitely universal at work here.

I'm certain I never thought it would be this taxing or emotionally draining to be the adult when I had visions of adulthood.jennhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09610702862708003953noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5094667961606498415.post-67185611308649281832011-07-11T05:53:03.246-07:002011-07-11T05:53:03.246-07:00Great post... you know I'm right there "in the middle" with you.

My sister and I had long talks about it, and she thinks I'm cynical, I think, because I've given up hope of changing my parents behavior towards things like their health, but I have beaten (beat?) my head against that brick wall to the point of blood a thousand times. It's not easy, this middle place. And, I'll be 37 with you, my friend. xoxoLindseyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12909653448867538655noreply@blogger.com
