Temporary is the right way to regard it. Hugs

Thank you, AC. I have perspective, I know it's only temporary, yet I don't have patience with my own melancholy. Thanks for pushing the point home - temporary.

your words ring true and give pause... it is just easier to sit in the dark, the silence than it is to reach out again and get smacked-down... or worse, find no one there

It is easier, but isolation is never a long-term solution. We're better when we engage with each other.

Welcome back, Sir. And thank you, Sir, for sharing that with us.

Thank you, renee. I appreciate it.

The imagery is magnificent , so vast and overpowering . Every word , every step from darkness to dawn , from disillusion to re-emergence.
