a little about me

for those of you who dont know me,i suppose i should tell a little about me.my name is marino vorrosso,im 56,and for work,i strip and wax floors in convienence stores,and,i work nights.i love to read,people,and talk.my life has been pretty good,in general,and has a lot of ups and downs.i am married,have children,grandchildren and all that goes with it.i dont neccessarily feel a part of their life,but it is what it is.currently my wife is staying in the boston area,taking care of her father,i reside in fl.,hate the cold weather up north.i do miss the culture of boston,the people and all that,especially the 4th of july celebrations,on the esplanade.i also like art work,though i dont have much of a background in it,formally,just love beautiful things artistically.i have a sister,and brother,who i rarely interact with,and my mother,lives down the street.i try to talk with her once or twice a week,but i have to work at it.my dad passed away a couple of years ago and i miss the hell out of him.i love the people in my family,and looking above and typing all this,i wonder why i feel so far from them.honesty can be brutal and i know i am part of the problem,hahahaha.i also dont forgive others that hurt me very easily.people say i am too trustng,wear my heart on a sleeve and all that which is true.it is also true that while i have allowed myself to get hurt as a result,after a period of time i just withdraw from the person thats inflicting the pain.the people that have the most power over me are my family so i guess thats part of the reason for my solitary life.as they say life is a bitch,or can be,i say this with a smile on my face for bottom line,even if i feel more of an effort could have beeen made on their part,i also realize i am too blame also.i think thats part of the reason i am trying to interact with my mother a little more now.well i have to go take care of some stuff,so until next time ,enjoy life,smile as often as you can and treasure the love you have.later,love to all,me.
