Thank you, DU, for a gift you gave me today. It didn't "sink" [View all]

Last night I posted some thoughts here, mostly as a way to relieve the stress we are all feeling. I said that I hoped some people would read my words, and that my post wouldn’t sink too quickly. instead of sinking, so many of you gave me a gift that will always be a part of my memories of this day. For a while, my little post has occupied a place on the “Greatest” list. Thank you to all of you for whom my words resonated, for your likes, and for your gracious comments.

No matter what happens in the next few hours there’s one thing that I will always know. There are very good people here in this community. And I’m not going to be shy about posting again, and none of the rest of you should either.

Be kind to one another. It’s all any of us have in a world that sometimes seems to have gone mad.
