Thank you both for your warm good wishes. Iso, what a beautiful poem. Mair, what a great memory you have!
It is rather amazing that at 50 I'd find myself HERE. I think the biggest difference it's made vis a vis my depression is not that I'm un-depressed, but that my horizon is not bleak and desolate.
Mair, you are right that my hold on life for some time has been pretty loose. I expect I'll always have depression in my life, and he will too, probably (his own, not just mine)--it's the horizon that makes waking up worthwhile.
I am excited, feeling like I'm standing at the gateway to a grand adventure. And like any traveling worth doing, it's the ups and downs that keep it interesting.
Your well wishes mean a lot to me.
xoxo
Shar
