My Absence

Besides not feeling well, the reason for my absence is this: I was discouraged. I wrote a great big long essay/post that got lost. It was beautiful - poetic and profound. I didn't want to redo it. It was a masterpiece. (I can say that of course, now that it's lost). So I became discouraged and haven't written anything again. But last night a type of encore to my original/lost post happened. So I have decided to try again. I know it won't be as well-written, and that will make me sad. But I'm going to write it again anyway, and include the events from the encore. It might take a while. But I'll be back.
