40 YEARS and BACK from WOODSTOCK continued

OF INTEREST . . . I was thinking on the recent, and not so recent, happenings we have been sharing. OF NOTE . . . . . . . I found myself identifying the collegian-seminarian-Timlin with the collegian-seminarian- ??????? . . . albeit belated, awareness nonetheless . . . for you it was the drugs at the Woodstock celebration 1969, for me it was the alcohol at the major seminary's Oktoberfest celebration 1971 . . . the gestalt, the Eureka moment, when the realisation dawned upon us that the seminary and the priesthood were not the journey and the destination respectively for which we were bound. OF COURSE . . . Out of our individual experiences came your mate and my partner . . . though in my case the relationship was over after ten years. They were good ones, and many lessons were, and still are, being lived and learned. Kind comments you wrote . . . kind and generous realisations you have shared.
