It's time like this that make me feel as if they mis-placed thier trust, Steve.

It's always a matter of 'I could have done more but....'
You never plan things to go as they do. Things just have a life of thier own.
Then you end up exactly where you never planned on being from the start.


I knew this day would come sooner then later.
I knew the pain would be here to greet me like an old and hated enemy.
And I knew from day one that there was not a thing I could do to stop nor delay it.

None of that changes the fact that I shared a very special bond with both Babe and Storm.

I'm a better person for the time I was given with both of them.
And I'll always know just how much they changed me.

I figure I'll always be a Richard in ways. But they helped me care about things when it matters.
