Eyes for Crying For the longest tme and now more than ever Sally had wished that she was back in Los Angeles sitting at her study desk at USC. Now that the economy was in the tank she wished that she had drank from the well of knowledge, when given the opportunity... She used to think it wasn't her fault that she had not done so well, but it was she who made the choices to get involved in the seedy side of college and it hadn't served her well. Even through her tears now she could clearly see, that you can't have it both ways; a college education can make you or break you, opening up doors or taking opportunities away, and it was in these times of high unemployment when she wished she had studied harder for better grades and possessed a better resume.

A sad age old story James for it has happened so many times before but I'm sorry to say that is just the way it is and I don't think it will ever change. Take care my friend. Lindsay |

Very sad. I don't mean to seem flip, but it's like crying over spilled milk, when the meadow is decked with heavy laden' cows! Perhaps if she'd just follow the compass of her heart; there a whole world out there to conquer! My regards, James art |

I dunno, James, I think Sally needs to take herself in hand and not look back. We can't change our past, we can only build our future. A |
