JJ, while I think you are right, and I have discovered that for myself, I think there are sometimes people who don’t want to discuss it or bring it out in the open. Sometimes it’s best to let sleeping dogs lie. When you have jobs, kids, grandkids, other social situations then you have to adjust. For some of us it is a compromise and always will be a compromise. Some have it much easier – spouse who approves/accepts, single, etc. I have always said that I don’t have anything to PROVE. And I don’t. Dani is a big part of me. I can’t deny that she exists and I’m limited in my abilities to suppress her. And it is dangerous to suppress that too much. But I will not trample everybody else’s feelings to prove that. It’s a balance and a delicate one.
