Hey missy ...welcome back....hope all went well with you while you were out there in the real world. Did you get to look at any beautiful things or people on your way?
'Sometimes there's so much beauty in the world I feel like I can't take it, like my heart's going to cave in.'
Y'know Deirdre, all I could think of after I read your comment was 'American Beauty'. Such a fabulous movie. So many gorgeous lines in it. Not sure why, but it seems to fit perfectly with how I'm feeling lately and with what has been going on with me. Even the painful stuff has a beauty in the clarity it gives to my life.
'They say your entire life flashes in front of your eyes when you die. It's not really your entire life... It's just the moments that stood out... And they're not the ones you'd expect, either...The moments you remember are tiny ones, some you haven't thought of in years... If you've thought of them at all... But in the last second of your life, you remember them with astonishing clarity... Because they're just so... beautiful... that they must have been imprinted, on like a cellular level...'
'I guess I could be pretty pissed about what happened to me... but it's hard to stay mad, when there's so much beauty in the world. Sometimes I feel like I'm seeing it all at once, and it's too much, my heart fills up like a balloon that's about to burst...'
'And then I remember to relax, and stop trying to hold on to it, and then it flows through me like rain and I can't feel anything but gratitude for every single moment of my stupid little life...'

Welcome back, my dear.
I trust everything is more or less hunky-dory?
Here's my question to you:
What the hell is a hunky-dory?
Good to be back, kind sir.
My answer to you:
Other than the title of a very excellent David Bowie album, I don't have a fucking clue!
Sometimes a person thinks they gots some dragon-slaying to do, when in reality, they only need to kick that lame dragon's ass.
Oh. But They gots to draw it, first. THEN slay it:
