Half a Man

Without a wife, I'm half a man
    without a life, with no game plan

  Without children, partners come unglued 
     ~ 'course that can happen, with children too

Of course, WITH children, it’s more likely you’ll be unhinged! ;-) Terry

with or without children: a door is only as good as its hinges. ... a knee is only as good as its cringes ... heroin is only as good as its syringes ... eating is only as good as its binges...

LOL on the last line. Love, hope and faith keep us on track. Though something is difficult in the present, the Lord has it in hand. God bless you, Gershon!

You and your wife seem stuck with glue Instead of one you now are two If you just stuck two halves of you What will the other two parts do?
