Desperate times can often find the desperate making desperate decisions. We do not always make the right choices. Then again, for some of us, choice itself is not always an option. Remember though: a problem shared is at least a problem aired. A problem held too tightly may never be spoken at all. Bless the ones who cared for every unprepared voice, because life has a habit of leaving some journeys painfully unaired. It is easy to become misplaced when staring into a mirror and no longer recognising the face looking back at you. Yes, this piece is autobiographical. I suspect you may already have worked that out.
