Testing a new mantra

Well, the cycle failed. The inevitable question is "now what?" Adoption? That's most likely since we've just about run out of reasonable medical options when you factor in that IM is totally exhausted and demoralized by treatment. Unfortunately, adoption is not a particularly easy road to travel either. Such is life. Anyway, something occurred to me while thinking about all this stuff and I wrote the following email to IM:

"You know...for some reason today I'm feeling like wishing and hoping for us to have a baby through IVF or some miracle is equivalent to wishing you were taller. You know what I mean? What's the point? We are what we are."

Perhaps that will be new mantra. We are what we are. Is that any good?
