Synchronicity

One of the things about being around for 42 years is that you begin to notice trends in life in general. For example, I have noted that things tend to happen at the most inopportune moments. Right now my partner is entering one of the most difficult times in her life, she has begun medical school and is finding the workload in the first year to be really heavy.... Up until this point her life has been relatively simple, but as is so often the way, just when you need simplicity and focus the most, events conspire to deny it to you. That's where I come into the picture. I didnt come into her life to make it complicated, nor did I ever intend for our relationship to develop the way it did, but it did and now in addition to her intense workload, she has a brand new relationship to work on. For my part I am doing my utmost not to be too demanding and to be supportive yet unobtrusive.....I hope I am doing a reasonable job of it.
The path she has chosen to follow is a tough one, she is far more courageous than I am, that's for sure.
