The Realities Of Life....Or How Things Pan Out....

 There were certain , well, disappointments.

Not so much in an every day sense,

 however... sometimes in those quiet reflective moments,

 one could give voice to ones longing/ loss, or lack of meaningful connection.

At first she took it as some sort of slight
 against all those amazing, capable, fantastic interesting,
 intelligent women that she knew.
 Then she realised, it was really about Roger, and his situation.
Apparently he'd found himself in a back water,
 or he didn't know how to negotiate the waters of life,
( or something profound.)
 But any rate, she felt a sort of " soft spot", and a bit sorry for his predicament, 
and hoped that by some miracle, he'd get on and  let go,
 and do whatever it was that would find him free 
to experience that lovely part of life.
