Distant Known
Sometimes you run across the road and sometimes you find yourself in the Network.
"Hey, what's up?" .. "Oh is so ."... and whoosh, you're past each other and think, then how sad it is that you had to say no more. Not only are the miles, it is also the very different lives that you have taken that make me speechless. One would have to talk about, to explain how it is now here come back and I never know whether the other wants to know really.
What is the job that's kind of standard, but at least the family level, because it starts to get complicated. Often, anyway.
This time it was told otherwise, already the industry in the profile that had the changes have been dramatic. I had intended to go over the simple, had a "Hi! Nice photos ..." leave and I clicked on. A few days later I was in the spam folder an e-mail, which also was nothing more than a "It's great that you still are." was. I Friemelt a friendly answer, but somehow could not get around to ask how he had come for a job now at a film company. Curiosity kills you know, only cats.
That was the start to a really long Mailerei.
Last update was been with me almost 15 years ago, I was still married and he also, with the difference that he and his wife expected her third child. He just had a full time position in a community JWD get hold and moved with child and plug in a city that I would not have without the help of a map can locate.
I had my ideas as well as directly. I suspected that he had to reorient themselves, because without friends in a very foreign country with three scaredy-pants, nem tight buget and a job where there is no real closing time and no real weekends fast to his own and the limits of the partner is. But much further off, I would not be located.
No, that's not it. The community had taken the young family very much, because there was a house that was quickly filled with friends and a garden, with a pack of children from the neighborhood and everything went great. His wife began to flourish, and found that they were now really arrived in life.
three, no more four very happy years. Then everything began to crumble.
"I came home and saw my wife with the children in the kitchen and thought this is somehow not mine. This is one strange one. But when the alien who is, then who am I?"
I had him 20 years ago can tell exactly who he is, not without some derision, I would have told him that he is the dream of a good Christian mother. The guy who spends his free time in the Youth Ministry and the Worship Band and the summer either Volontary service or Bible Camp is planned, and at most to the beach goes, there to a reach-out campaign for prospective Berufsgammler as hold me . The guy with the first two months the girl NEM pocket before he asks the parents if it's right that he is dating and every time ten minutes before the time re-deposited on the Porch of the parents. And of course, with the clock two years later a formal nachgestoppte Request made.
"age" would have said I, "you do not even exist, you exist only in the dreams of white American Protestants in the suburban church, ending their neighborhood always somehow Ville, .. or Creek or something.", And the I wrote to him.
And he wrote: "Bingo!" That's what he had been, only then slowly grew in him the suspicion that, including his education, family and a job were all things that he did it because someone somewhere and had the expected of him.
The question of who this could be Someone was probably the first cracks in his relationship. The question seemed to his surroundings simply inappropriate. Well, sure people like I would have no trouble with something serious. Because I to provide for his perception, not fear had basic questions and also possess no hesitation when the questions are not answered satisfactory.
Well, evasive answers or tactical retreat, hmm, that may in fact raise the terrier in me. However, I consider myself to totally tame. And so amazingly smart and world-shaking questions I had after that time-I feel-not.
"And then came the day," he wrote, "He came quite suddenly from out of nowhere. I went shopping. I pushed the cart or as co-pastor direction of the car and when I had stored the items in the car and slammed the tailgate, I knew I'm alone. There is no one. That was an incredible feeling. "After that was for then, broke up everything else at breakneck speed.
that his wife forbade him to deal with the children that was and is probably even worse for him.
" I do stuff sometimes old photos, and I have trouble recognizing me. I know, the guy just not in the photo. "
Whether he believed me, that I also see some old photos of me and I'm sure not always right again? Like when a remote acquaintance is not always directly recognize .
