How much difference a day can make. Monday eve I was gone, Tuesday had me all restored to humanity again. Whether it is sickness, sorrow, exhaustion, pain or worries: one day of care and providence just gets one back into the land of the living. It always humbles me to learn yet another new thing. And learn I did. Romance is overrated. Live is not so much about what you think you need (or want) out of it. It is more about being able to see and appreciate what you actually are offered. And finding a way to accept it in grace and enjoy it. Or, as is the case right now, even be outright thankful for it.

True. But at times it’s also a question of perception. You know: is the glass half full or half empty?
