    Sharona Life is a Tale Told by an Idiot

    Lolita. The American Beauty of it's time. Quite shocking and satirical for the late 50's, early 60's. A dirty old man gets turned on by his landlady's sexy slutty daughter.

    • You are so well-read, lady. I really admire you for that. +6

    • Me too, it kept me from getting a good career and becoming successful. LOL.

    • It also made you very, very smart.

    • I will be happy to convince you otherwise. If I am smart it is because of trial and error. My life is not one other's would applaud, I'm sure. I spent a lot of years away from my daughter, trying to find myself. Very self-centered as a young woman, very lost and very prone to do irrepsonsible deeds. But thanks Phillis. Trust me you have the wisdom and the smarts I was looking for back then.

    • You remind me very much of what I was afraid I would become when I had children. I was terrified I would repeat the same mistakes my mother made. But when I see you, I don't feel judgemental. By virtue of being born, everybody has the right to grow (or not) at their own pace. I was able to forgive everyone's sins but my own. That is exactly why I married and had children so late in life.

    • Thanks Phillis. You and your kids are blessed. I am so very lucky I made some amends and my daughter is fine and with me now. She is a wonderful girl, no thanks to me. Her dad did most of the work and she did even more.

    • She still needs her mother, Hari. That will never go away. There will always be a tiny sliver of that little girl inside her who needs your love and approval.
