Nice

Very nice!

First...I loved your illustration. Very nice.

Having taken the time to read this whole "experience," of yours, I could only go "whew!"
A favorite band of mine came to mind. as I wound myself all the way down thru all this. The song was called, "As I Come Of Age." Thot I might post the lyrics and the song. To me, I feel there's a certain juxtaposition between you, and their observations. Hope you don't mind me barging in.

[u]As I Come Of Age[/u]
As I come of age
I keep fallin' down
And I feel just like a schoolboy
I was in a senseless rage
Runnin' too hard
And I tore you all to pieces
Yes, but it's all over now
And I'm a little bit older now
The lessons that I'm learnin' now
Gonna make it easy
Now then can I try
Starting over
Put the pieces back together
Even as I cry
Bitter tears
I can see it's all a puzzle a game
Always the same
Instrumental (Electric Guitar)
Yes, but it's all over now
And I'm a little bit older now
The lessons that I'm learnin' now
Gonna make it easy
By the time I die with the passing
If I've sorted out my changes
And if you could take the time
I would tell you
That it's still a puzzle the same
Always a game ooh!
