Hang in there, buddy.  Have no idea why life is so fast and "heavy" at times, but, know that some of the most challenging can be some of the most rewarding.  Praying for you.

I know the feeling my friend. All I can say is keep your faith and look up. Life runs in circles and seasons. Hang in there and if you get too down, talk to someone.

------"You have noticed that everything an Indian does is in a circle, and that is because the power of the world always works in circles, and everything tries to be round... The sky is round, and I have heard that the earth is round like a ball, and so are all the stars. The wind, in its greatest power, whirls. Birds make their nests in circles, for theirs is the same religion as ours... Even the seasons form a great circle in their changing, and always come back again to where they were. The life of a man is a circle from childhood to childhood, and so it is in everything where power moves."---Black Elk, Oglala Sioux 1863-1950

Bob, many of us have faced similar experiences in life. I believe that we are to support one another in such times and those that have walked in those shoes are here to offer such support.  "Broken Fin Fishing Fools" (at the top of the page) is a group of anglers here for you in time of need. Feel free to contact me and I feel Avid or Muddy_Man, as would others say contact us privately, if you need to talk any time.  

No matter how hard things seem at the time, know that "this to" will pass.
