In the end, we all have to decide what we're willing to give up for payback. We all have parents or grandparents or children who will need us. Agonizing decisions sometimes. You have to weigh the memories and debt against what's being taken from you.

Writers are always critical of themselves and I'm no exception. I always feel that maybe I could have done better.
