   Gina’s lament was an underlying thought for me for decades. It was a lie I told myself because I felt lonely sometimes, and I saw so many others pairing up. Even while I had a successful career and good friends, I felt lonely. With help I was able to work through that, and at 48 married. (Yes, it’s a long time to wait!) The next 28 years were worth the wait. My wife died last year, and the old loneliness feelings revisit more than I care for. I might never again be somebody’s somebody, but I’m mine, and God’s. Mark Twain said, “A man’s about as happy as he makes up his mind to be.” I’m happy.
