Childhood was often a painful experience, but if we were lucky, and many of us were, then there were escapes, partial resolutions, and a few safety nets to fall back into. However, young adulthood and middle age became progressively less accommodating, and old age is sometimes like hell itself, with no possibility of negotiating with our painful circumstances, as they were built brick by brick, year after year, and remain as solid as the hardest rock on earth.
