They serve a purpose, and, even when those in my dear mother's situation do not live in 'the virtual world' continuously.
She will, from time to time, resort to dipping back into it, with varying levels of intensity and continuity.
In her another attempt to extract the result she aspires, deliberately or otherwise, to achieve.
Because, yes, as we move beyond our 'promised' 3 score and 10, sometimes even earlier, if fate is more unkind to us, some of us begin to approach the land of conspiracy.
Of feeling sorry for ourselves. Of having sometimes unfair expectations of our children and grandchildren.
But refusing, not wanting to acknowledge to ourselves that our expectations are not fair. Of spending time thinking of 'how much we have done for them, and of how little they are now doing for us.'
Of looking back; probably oftentimes with a certain 'false memory' which loudly proclaims that you, the person perceiving the other as now being 'ungrateful.'
To be continued!
