A defining question

[tessa]

I really want to write something substantial, but I'll be damned if I can think of anything to add that isn't discursive or trite.

If that's "discursive or trite", I'd be no doubt blown away by your substantial effort.

Seriously.

I'll add something personal here. I originally posed the question because I am seeking answers to my life's questions. Some here understand that, others, not so much. It doesn't matter as people can say what they want in any way they want. I can put on my wading boots any time I need to.

Many would say, "why the hell ask here??". Because "here" is one of the few places I feel comfortable in asking. Yes, the anonymity helps, but it's more about like-minds and such, despite the differences we obviously have. My other asking option involves those who are very...defined in their responses. While I can appreciate their input, I also appreciate the outside-the-box thinking to be had here.

Thank you for your input Thrasher. You've given me even more to consider. (and I mean that in a good way)
