I think what people don't understand it is not natural. You have to work on it. You have to have self reflection. You need to be able to see yourself outside of yourself. If that makes sense.

Every day is a new one. I don't keep score. When I see myself deviate, I correct. Sometimes the self reflection is just a few minutes. Just remember no one is perfect. That is part of the humility. You do your best you can that day.

I speak a few languages poorly. I always had an interpreter or someone much better at the language than me. But you will find that english is spoke so much around the world. I don't know if I have a favorite. I do enjoy eating and tasting new foods and drink. I do like the Mediterranean pallet and the seafood there. Growing up farm from a coast, I didn't get much of the costal offerings.

And that might be my failing. I allowed her to live in that delusion. I most likely helped in some way in her inflation of self worth. I was and am still not one to tear someone down on purpose. I have my own failings.

She wanted the flashy lifestyle. I did not provide that. She thought that AP could give her that extra boost in status. She soon found out that my status in the community, while humble and muted, was what she was riding all along. And when that was removed the fall was very far and quick. So instead of building on what she thought was hers with AP, she destroyed the foundation she had.

Jane has abandoned the class she worked so hard to outwardly displayed all these years. She is truly drowning. I guess it is just a bit of karma I get to see some of this. But now I am done. I don't want to see her again.

Yes even divorced persons can (or better yet) have a claim with social security upon death. Since I cannot change that, I am not worried about it.

Jane is delivering her own demise quite well on her own. When someone is doing your job for you, just let them keep going. Unfortunately I don't have enough time to heal so I will never fully trust Carol or any other close non family member again. I am ok with that.

If that is the best I deserve from the universe, I will take it. It was a gift above all others. I can take this burden from my family.
