Oh, yeah.

There's some weariness to be had. Remember the other days.

Just one of many examples:

My son, sure that he had miserably failed an audition for a high school play, texted me at the time:

Messed up my lines... so far i was the only one that did...

Later...

It was shit. god i really wanted to be in this play too.

Much later:

Landed a role in the play! didn't even get double casted!

He played the General in Neil Simon's "The Good Doctor," in the short piece called "The Sneeze." My son is very tall, with a deep voice, and carried off a furious Russian general that would have had Patton peeing down his leg. On the wall of his room is the award he won for this role at the Mother Lode Drama Festival.

That's what you remember. I hope he does too, when he thinks he's not all that good at things.
