I haven't seen my parents for over 15 years. They're dead.

But, If I could see them now, Mom would be teaching unicorns to sing opera while knitting them horn-sweaters (because unicorn heaven can get chilly.) Dad ... let's just say where he is he probably doesn't need a sweater.

I woke groggy, disoriented... mouth dry... where are my clothes? Watch, wedding ring missing... strange bed, weird room. There's a bad aftertaste in my mouth, butt's hurting, and a creepy-looking guy smiling, staring down at me. I have vague memories of last night passing through my head-- large container of terrible-tasting clear liquid, lots of time spent in the toilet...

My head flops around and I see my wife standing in a doorway, a bag containing all of my clothes and stuff clutched in her hand. She looks less than pleased. A too-cheerful voice tells me I am free to go home...





... and that, my friends, is what it's like to get a colonoscopy.

Been there, Done that :mad:
 
Life is funny. So many things to be thankful for, so many advantages over so many in this world, so many opportunities both embraced and passed over. Yet there are days (even realizing all I just typed) that I wonder if I've done anything worth a penny. I wonder if I've left any mark on this world, I wonder if any of it's been worth it. Being depressed (not even clinically) is an odd thing. Regardless of what your head knows, what you can rationalize, there still remains the cloud of doubt, worthlessness, despair. No this is not a cry for help, more of a self assessment.

I used to feel the same way until I had my son.... he will be the mark I leave on this World.

BTW: I say him because he's all I got.
 
I have 2 children. I hope they take the lessons that I both taught them and learned myself to heart and make something of themselves. But we all know that the making of children is nothing special, they are made and are born every day. It's the raising that matters, to which I have given my best.

I meant more on a personal level. There is some solace in my children yes, but as a man, what have "I" done. I don't know that the world's any better for having me in it, nor do I know were I never here if there'd be a reason to have missed me.

George Bailey syndrome. (hopefully you get the reference)
