## hi jeffrey,

I went on my first date a week ago Saturday with a guy I met through Match.com. He is very interesting—a vegan, Buddhist, physician. The date went well and we made plans to go to MOMA this Saturday but then he called to cancel on Wednesday because he had to cover at the hospital for a fellow doctor who was out sick. It's very strange to deal with so many uncertainties—but actually i've come to the conclusion that life is more uncertain than it's certain, and that over the course of time change is probably more natural than having things stay the same. Anyway, I'm determined to be the only one who is responsible for my happiness. If he doesn't call, at least i know now that it is possible to meet nice people. I thought you'd be happy to know that I'm doing so much better since you were key to my initial healing. Love,
