Conscience

For LL

Conscience, now there's an interesting concept viz a viz you LL. Here's the definition...

Conscience is an aptitude, faculty, intuition or judgment that assists in distinguishing right from wrong. Moral judgment may derive from values or norms (principles and rules).

Difficult to see how you fit into that meaning, isn't it. 

Your morals must be hidden deep in your conscience as the immoral side was right up front. Then there's theft. That is just plain wrong. You committed both immorality and theft and they should be weighing on your conscience. You rationalize most things by pretending to forget them and/or burying them deep inside you, so that with an 'apparent' clear conscience you can get on with what you call your life. You may forget these things but others haven't.... remember this...the one item you didn't steal.

You had admiration and respect at one time but your lack of principles and values destroyed that. You deserved what happened and you deserved the fact that you weren't the only one sharing me, after my discoveries. I kept that from you the same way you kept what you were up to from me. The difference being that I didn't look elsewhere until I discovered your infidelity. How does it feel to now know that you were playing second fiddle? About the same way it felt for me, I bet. All water under the bridge now but it's good to remind you from time to time.

Back in London now and joined by my good buddies and their wives from the States tomorrow for a week of fun. All staying at our place in Knightsbridge.

Then toward the end of the month the two us start our usual European sojourn, starting in.....Spain. I understand you will be there at the end of the month, so you never know...paths may cross. We are being joined later by our families including Tom who is now close to completing his term in the USMC. He's now a light colonel (Lieutenant Colonel). Several grandchildren - well seven in all - will be joining us as well as N's latest 'bump' due in June. - four of the seven are from my side of the family. They are all a joy. You have missed out on so much. That's apart from all the homes, travel, cars, boats and private jet. See below (admittedly, I've changed some of the cars):

Your decision and one you realized straight after, was the wrong one. I agree. You had that chance in early 2006 and you lacked the courage to take it. The same way you lacked the courage to face me. They call that cowardice where I come from.

So overall I guess it was me that had the close shave...not you.

You chose the mundane life, the life spent in virtually the same places every weekend for the past nearly 11 years, a life spent with a partner with no neck and a girth as wide as he is high. What a choice!

We are both looking down the short side of the hill now, but at least my life is fulfilled, happy and full of contentment. I can't say the same applies to yours...and I know more than you realize ;-)

Ciao

PS You have never had the courage to make contact I either...I don't bite. Not these days anyway. :))))
