You are no different than any of the rest of us Burt. I have shed tears for you not because of pity but because I see myself in you and don't want you to hurt anymore. I want you to stand in pride and stronger than Zeus. The pride that I speak of has nothing to do with ego or self indulgence. It is the pride that you want to instill in every creature on the planet. When the rooster crows in the morning it sticks out its chest in pride. When little Mary plays her first recital and mom glows with pride at her accomplishment. It is the pride that a momma Canadian goose has for her goslings and her mate that closely watches her and his brood. I am so proud of you brother, dave
