Some of us carry the seeds of a physical, mental, and spiritual malaise, one of the "isms" like alcoholism, for example. These explode, reach the surface, and sprout. Our straight path zings away to the side, we lose sight of center, and we circle around the edge of what others seem to easily obtain. At some point on the narrow path, I suddenly recall the day of my first marriage's divorce, and I...
