User blog:Doctor Ibrahim/The End

Hello everyone.

Life has a way of monkeying with our perceived order of things. The old chestnut that says life doesn't give you more than you can handle is, frankly, malarkey. It's the sort of saying that comes from people who think they are wise, but are in fact simply very well padded with money and lawyers.

For the rest of us, we're left deciding what's most important, and making the necessary adjustments. And that can be difficult, because all of it is important. It isn't easy. Sometimes, there are no answers, only choices.

My choices lately haven't been easy ones to make. My free time has gone from being nonexistent to having a severely negative balance, and I've had to decide how to deal with that. So, effective today, I'm retiring. Rather than simply fading away with promises I can't keep and a divided attention span that leaves me feeling empty and unfulfilled because of those promises left unanswered, I'm calling it. The family and I are moving on.

You've been a good bunch of friends, and I'm blessed to have met you. Best of luck in all you do. You know where to find my email if you need me.

Yours in the name of the Regent, long may she live,

Doctor Ibrahim
