Congratulations! Welcome to your mid-twenties!
You now believe that your greatness is only limited by your own flawed being. For the next decade, your estimate of self-worth will oscillate between fraud and failure.
These feelings will continue until you realize that they are one of the common events of being a human being with the majority of its needs cared for. This acceptance will come slowly and be a relief from an omnipresent stress you stopped noticing you felt.
This acceptance will be difficult for you to distinguish from simply settling for less and leaving your talents to fallow.
Good luck!

Hello Jeff. I was just wondering if you or your family has ever lived in Illinois? You look very familiar and your last name is not familiar here. I have a grown adopted son whose last biological name was Hodges. Thank you. Kitty Kelso
Never were your words so clear, than after I read my own comment on your site. I did believe that my words would not be published, but I believe I cannot point fingers for the fact that they were. I did something I should never had done. Those words were very personal and involved my dear son who had been curious about his life before he was a father himself. I should have left the searching to him. My words simply were not enough. He passed away several years ago while riding on his motorcycle. It affect me in many ways; this question was looking for answers to his two children; as I realize the curiosity comes more once after adolescence. I too factually asked a question that should have either never been asked at all, or in a peronal envelope. Please accept my apology. My writing has reached at all time climax for re-consideration. God Bless you & your family.

I am just learning – there is no room for any error in judgement or editing on RSS or Permalink. I can’t take away #2 or #3; so, just consider them both to be a testament to how shallow I feel about my #1. kk
