Angry

[poliphilo]

I was in a terrible mood all yesterday. Carl came to the door and I was brusque with him, my friend Judy wrote me about some regrettable goings-on in the Archdiocese of Westminster and I replied with an attack on Cardinal Archbishop Cormac Murphy O'Connor which was quite hair-raising in its unreconstructed bigotry. In the end I had to sit myself down and ask myself what the hell was going on.

And myself replied that a friend of mine had died young- an LJ friend as it happens- and it just wasn't bloody fair.

I'm sorry to hear of your loss, Tony. Life is quite astonishingly unfair. I keep wishing no one had ever taught me to think of it that way.

Thanks. It's not really my loss. I can't pretend I knew him well. But he leaves a wife and daughter who thought the world of him.

It is a loss you feel, though, if you're angry about it.

Oh yes.....
