For an instant you think it is temporary blindness, this sudden dark that comes in the middle of a bright afternoon.
It "must" be blindness, you think; could the sun that was tanning you have gone out instantaneously, leaving you in utter blackness?
Then the nerves of your body tell you that you are "standing," whereas only a second ago you were sitting comfortably, almost reclining, in a canvas chair. In the patio of a friend's house in Beverly Hills. Talking to Barbara, your fiancee. Looking at Barbara -- Barbara in a swim suit -- her skin golden tan in the brilliant sunshine, beautiful. . . .
If you had to give your life so that you could live it over again -- would you? Could you? "Should" you?
