I just finished skimming through a book by Anita Brookner, a british author that I admire. She has a lyrical style and her tales remind me of some british movies that I had seen in the sixties. They were very introspective , dealing with peoples' feelings and relationships or lack of relationships. I could empathize with some of the characters actions since I have some of the same failings myself. Now that I am in what perhaps could be the final decade of my life I can look back and ask myself, did I do the the best that I could possibly do? Did I meet the expectations of those around me? I think that I would have to answer no , I did not. All that I did, in my opinion, was just hang and fantasize about what could have been.
