Thanks so much for reading this, Paul, and for sharing your thoughts. Yes - it was very sad about that lost spirit ... I wanted to help him but, oh, man, I was really struggling with my own "breakdown" of sorts at that time. I'd reached a saturation point of stress and loss and was badly in need of healing and a big 'time out'.

Being open-minded is a good thing.

Thank you so much for your kindness, Paul. I appreciate all you said!
