You are brave to break up and clear the decks. So many topics pursued that did not pan out are swimming in my computer hard drive, like persistent fish.

It's good to be right and brave, but of course -- there's grief and stumbling, and maybe the heartbreak is even worse because nothing wrong with you and nothing wrong with the subject but together you just weren't meant to be.
