Such is the way of the world today
by Jack GrantJohn of Argghhh! was afflicted with the harsh light of now today, in a very personal way.
Fortunately, he was and is capable of handling such situations in a way that causes no new harm, and he comports himself in a way that I can only hope to dimly emulate if ever confronted with a similar circumstance.
Sadly, it is a note of our degenerate times that the occasion had to “be handled” with kid gloves in the first place, exemplifying yet another tragedy that comprises the harsh light of the now.

Jack, I posted quite a long response with links to other materials using your post here and your linked post “Old hopes that wither in the harsh light of the now” and John’s run-away-boy situation on my site. Sorry, but I didn’t want to repost it all here as it is really long with a ton of links.
