my bad luck


Toward the end of the "Unbearable Lightness" Tomas no longer has the skilled hands of a surgeon.  It is a sad moment when Tereza realizes this.

Like Tomas I have lost the skills I once possessed.

Tomas, being a fictional creation, had the good grace to die soon afterwards, in a romantic and poetic scene.

As an all-too-actual creation, I have had no such luck.
