The last thing she would want is for you to feel badly about how you were as a teen, or anything else, for that matter.<br /><br />I've gotta read your book when you're done!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23774671.post-38523073295741488202006-11-29T09:16:00.000-08:002006-11-29T09:16:00.000-08:00student loans. they're worth it.student loans. they're worth it.Reluctant Nomadhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15777629955562705346noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23774671.post-10152497810307190892006-11-28T21:17:00.000-08:002006-11-28T21:17:00.000-08:00Darlene,

It's so much more introspective and beautifully written than mine :-). I think it's because you're so open and real all the time--you're willing to write about doubts, fears, regrets . . . all the good stuff. I've only been blogging for a couple of months now, and it's more been a "family" type blog that I started half under duress after requests from far flung members of my clan who wanted updates about our life. But mine's so chatty and surfacey. (Like the journal you know your parents are going to read.) Wish I could be more like you.<br />Good on ya for the MFA letters to the Y. I hope hope hope they get something going there. I also noticed a mention in a previous entry about _The Bonds That Make Us Free_. Another similarity between the two of us: I love that book. I took a course from Terry Warner in 1991 at the Y when the book was in manuscript form and he and that book truly changed the way I look at life. Anyway, keep writing this beautiful blog . . . and hope you feel better soon.<br />AngelaAnghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08026899563208525525noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23774671.post-24421515282472261762006-11-28T10:46:00.000-08:002006-11-28T10:46:00.000-08:00Courtney,

Did someone leave me something in their will?<br /><br />(I shouldn't complain. My mom DID leave me this book, after all.)<br /><br />Marj,<br /><br />The first step is to accept what you can't change, old lady. You are, my dear, vastly older than I. (Possibly more mature, too. I'm not sure though.)Darlenehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02390374931911258822noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23774671.post-13597102488763991852006-11-28T07:40:00.000-08:002006-11-28T07:40:00.000-08:00Back when we were 22 I didn't realize how young yo...Back when we were 22 I didn't realize how young your mom was when she died but now that we are pushing 40 I realize how young she really was. And notice I said "we" are pushing 40. I'm not THAT much older than you, you know. <br /><br />I will put that book on my to read list. I'm sorry you are feeling so icky.
