1 " Had any children? the doctor asks. I say No.And close my lips—the other half of the answer. If this were a party, I'd feel I had to go on,even if the other person hadn't askedWhy not? Or Are you planning on having any?They feel free to ask. And almost always, I explain something about wanting them but not enough, or how I wish I had two lives: in one of themI'd have a child by now. But it's no good, not doing something never sounds as real as doing it. I seem to stand in for reserve, my life a keeping back, a state of being not in active service. "
