Default The Trout

When a trout rising to a fly gets hooked on a line and finds himself

unable to swim about freely, he begins with a fight which results in

struggles and splashes and sometimes an escape.

Often, of course, the situation is too tough for him.


In the same way the human being struggles with his environment and

with the hooks that catch him. Sometimes he masters his difficulties;

sometimes they are too much for him. His struggles are all that the

world sees and it naturally misunderstands them.

It is hard for a free fish to understand what is happening to a hooked one.

I'm reminded of people who are newly grieving the suicide death of a loved one so I will be reposting some of our older "threads".

Went to our new support meeting last night and met some amazing people.

Hugs for the room.

Thank you ((Ms. Alffe)). You do such a good job of taking care of us. You make me feel like I'm being rocked and held in a soft blankie while I contentedly suck my thumb.
