I am thinking about empathy... putting ourselves in Dennis Walkers’ shoes and wondering how we would feel if we were placed in the position where a substantial portion of our treasures were auction off under similar circumstances?

The anguish one may experience when making forced choices due to external factors beyond our control. I am thinking Dennis did not wish to have the sale at this undesirable time of the year, if at all. On occasion we may post narratives in an online setting that may unintentionally appear to have us “kicking a man when he is down.”

While I am certain that is not Robins intent whatsoever, the auction event was a moment of introspection for me.
