the one that got away - how do you handle grief?


I just lost a bid for my dream speakers that I had been chasing for a decade. It was pretty stupid because I missed the last hour and maybe I would have won it with another $100. But maybe it's a sign, it's just a piece of hardware, that I should not be obsessed with. - "you can't always get what you want"

Did you always get the gear you thought would make you whole?

@parkergetdean ,

It wasn’t me.

Apparently we have a besúgó in our midst...

What an árvácska, whomever it is.

@douglas_schroeder OK. I retract the statement about you getting paid by the word, please accept my apology.

Here is some friendly advice. Dial it down a notch or two. Some editing (reducing word count) and humility goes a long way.

For example, “My posts have been pertinent” (says you and only you) vs, “I try to write posts that are helpful.”

Also, when presenting yourself as a professional journalist, typos and bad grammar aren’t really acceptable. “phusius”?

Just a suggestion.

Funerals are used to say goodbye to loved ones, perhaps something similar? ;)
