Luke asked, "How did you meet Anette Stone?"
Honey List took a deep drag of his cigarette, looked up at the sky, and recalled, "A year ago, after I retired, I returned to Los Angeles, back to my mother's side, dreaming of starting a new and beautiful life.
But things didn't go as planned.
I couldn't fit into life in Los Angeles, couldn't find a suitable job, didn't get the respect I deserved, and suffered from severe mental illness, having to take those damn little pills every day.
This was completely different from the retirement life I had imagined.
I also asked myself, why is this? Is it because of me personally?
No.
Absolutely not just because of me.
I joined a veteran's support group, and I met a lot of retired soldiers who had similar issues, unable to find work, getting no respect, depression, suicide, alcoholism, drug abuse, eventually ending up on the streets as homeless or even turning to crime.
