moving on...
some kids ARE slow.
they land up in school, wake up one day, and realise that everyone else can read! and then they panic, and begin to learn to read... they land up in computer class, and realise that everyone is actually coding! (ok, writing crummy 'programs' in basic, but whatever!) and the same panic hits again! attempt to jump a few step, run, and catch up. before one leaves school, everyone has a girlfriend! whaa?! how did that happen? and where was our protagonist? obviously, not wooing the she-kind!
dont get me wrong: these kids arent retards. far from it. they are just bored of the world... they dont really notice things as challenges, till they sufficiently are so. it IS a vice, but its also encoded into their dna, its gentic; sad, but true... with age however, some things get worse, and some things get even worse...
everyone is married. hell, everyone has a kid, kids, even. some even separated, married again, AND have kids. phew. and our kid is still looking; only, he isnt really a kid anymore; far from it.
only, he isnt looking any more; not because he gave up, but because he found her. he also got the highest marks in class for writing 'basic biology' (written in ms-basic, sarcasm was always in his repertoire) he can, of course, also speed read most of his friends to dust. also wants to do a ph.d. some day. and the day he announced his love to the world, hearts broke. and not just 3 or 4.
he isnt really slow. he isnt just always running to play catch. he has no reasons to rush things, he likes to smell the notional roses, and walk the meandering path...
hopefully, never alone ever again.
amen
