Married the love of my life after 31 years (and other relationships). We found each other again – and we are just right for each other. My best friend – and the person who makes me laugh. Very worth it.

Quit being sensitive to every comment and funny look thrown my way. It’s not all about me. Maybe it’s about them – and the day they’re having – or the life they’re living.
What a good experience. Sure I griped before it because I had to do a bunch of stuff at work before I left, but it was a very positive experience. Twelve of us decided the fate of the defendant who was charged with multiple counts of robbery. While in the end we found him guilty, the discussion with my fellow jurors, who heard exactly what I did but had differing feelings about it, was very enlightening. The judge described serving on a jury as the second most important duty to our country, behind serving in the military. I felt proud that I performed my civic duty.
