Helpless to do anything good on my own, I rely always on a power much greater than me to do what can be considered by others as good. At 55 I've just begun to find out just how useful writing for others can be for me. My telling myself (in writing) all the things I couldn't or wouldn't tell someone else has led me to startling revelations. So here I've put down some of the results of my discoveries. You may never meet someone who gives you cause to reflect on your own life if all you seek is what gives you pleasure. But start seeking the truth about yourself, and you may find someone that you thought you knew.
