Professional Colleagues,
Thanks for your thoughts so far in this thread.
RTO makes some plaintive statements, but ones which I can see have their foundations in deep feeling.
I'll think more before posting my deeper thoughts, but in answer to RTO, what do WE do, the ones who cannot grow our hair long, saw the light too late, who were too brave or stupid to know better...?
Desk-pilot, I follow your argument, but I don't agree with it. Should all the money in the world be sufficient recompense for continuous sadness, failed relationships, ageing without living, etc? No, and again, no!
I'm delighted that this thread has kept going, with new life injected every so often, and hope it will continue to do so.
Don't stop talking.
