I may not be the funnest dad in the world, but hey ! I'm too knackered to be perfect.<br><br>I also sacrificed decent holidays and all the travel I wanted to do to keep it all together.<br><br>All I really wanted to do in life was have a small but close circle of friends and play in a decent pub band. Not too much to ask, surely (bearing in mind I'm a shit hot guitarist)<br><br>I feel unappreciated this Father's Day - no breakfast in bed, no hug - just a card chucked at me indifferently and I am really wondering what the bloody point of it all is.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3334391160365031546.post-37673790974249311282008-06-15T01:27:00.000-07:002008-06-15T01:27:00.000-07:00It is funny how much of a balance this whole pract...It is funny how much of a balance this whole practice involves, especially when you are writing about something so meaningful to you.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3334391160365031546.post-12556872088556406782008-06-15T02:35:00.000-07:002008-06-15T02:35:00.000-07:00Mutley- :) Crazy stuff, ain't it?CherryPie- The de...Mutley- :) Crazy stuff, ain't it?<br><br>CherryPie- The debate is what's important, yes.<br><br>We can use this forum to prove that we the people, can govern ourselves through discussion.<br><br>Humanity is at a crossroads, every voice counts.<br><br>Kimba- I don't expect it to. But the point is, every voice DOES counts. Lots of people. lots of places, each doing something in their own way.<br><br>And maybe yes, a genuine movement for change, not an orchestrated, controlled, movement,which itself strives to be what it replaces.<br><br>If enough people all realise they think and feel the same, then thats a start.<br><br>E-K- I have quite a good social life, really, I can't complain.<br><br>I think I do want to go travelling at some point- Africa and India mainly.<br><br>I have the small but close circle of friends, I'm not sure I really have the time to devote to raising a family- that's the main conclusion I've formed over the last year- it's just not practical. <br><br>Shame, because I always wanted children.<br><br>Princess P- It IS a balance, yes.
