surely, not the goodness......it is still there, altered but there.
We grow, things happen that change us and those around us and our childhood fantasies of everything being perfectly as we wished and dreamed and desired, begin to become an adult's reality. We have little control over most things and must learn to be flexible
but optimistic and good and useful and loving and giving, in spite of all present and all past and future disappointments, as there are, have been and will be many disappointments.
I am old and can tell of many sorrows and all that, but overall, I like life and what it gives me in exchange for my input into it. Sweet sorrow, my grandmother said, and life is that.
