I loved you in Wall Street!I think now, looking back, we did not fight our choices; we fought ourselves. The enemy was in us. This holiday is over for me now, but it will always be there, the rest of my days. As I'm sure Dunedin will be, fighting with Auckland for what some may call the "possession of my soul." There are times since, I've felt like a child, born of those two cities. But be that as it may, those of us who have had to move on have an obligation to build again. To learn from our previous experiences, and to try with what's left of our days to find a goodness and a meaning to this life.[1]

It's been a great break, and more than a part of me would love to stay. Sunday, I head to my other life in Auckland, and by doing so, become the other half of myself.
John commented to me just yesterday that he never seen someone who lived so far away fit so well back into his Dunedin life. The truth is, my path has always been made all the easier by the lovely people I surround myself with. Such is life.

Oh lordy, I would love the chance to see how I fit back into Dunedin. The people are good people back there, aren't they ...
Buddy, you might as well get all the hard truths at once:
You're a Jafa now
Margarita helps
I'm sorry - try as I might I cant see how the Margaritas can help. You'll just have to show me I guess.... :)
