@Charlet, you were younger, you understood less of the world. You deserve the benefit of compassion. Your mother isn't here to forgive you, I'm afraid, and you must find the strength to forgive yourself.
@Invader, before my wife trapped me, I really did consider going back to Asia and being a buddhist monk. I still think that's in my future after retirement.))
It started a new era for me when she died. I had no friends and I had barely any belongings, I did get what I was craving freedom from a horriable home and I used to crave for a lot of dark stuff. I am still repairing myself after my ordeals
Update on the Louvre Robbery: there are four more being arrested today, unfortunately there's no trace of the jewels being found since October 19th according to BBC News.
You know, there was a question from one of my fb pages I follow that asked, if time travel were possible what event would you visit in history and change. My response was that I'd stop or make sure Hitler were never born. And then I began thinking about it. And thought....how would that change ACME? Would we still be Anerican and international? Would we still have The united nations and NATO?
