I've enjoyed your writings whilst you were on board The Bliss and what you gained from your experiences! Thanks Clint!!

Happy Birthday Noam Chomsky!

Happy Birthday Hurd Hatfield! : When I watch "The Picture of Dorian Gray" (1945) I was besotted by this actor and a few years later, I recognized him in "Crimes of the Heart (1986). Although he had changed with age, etc., the vestige of his beautiful visage was apparent! Just sayin'

Thanks again, Larry. I’m not familiar with much of Mr. Hatfield’s filmography, but I’ve seen him in a few movies and remember him fondly. Cheers!

Clint, I truly hear you and applaud the clarity of your reflection, it’s powerful to recognize that life still holds so much more for us. I had a similar awakening this past spring, thanks to the remarkable people I met along my journey. My hope for you is that you continue to embrace joy, discovery, and the chapters yet to come. Carry on with courage and delight.

Ahhh…thank you so much, my dear. This year’s been a rollercoaster. I don’t usually like rollercoasters, but I wouldn’t take nothing for this ride. Looking forward to what comes next. Cheers!

A healing and restorative getaway for sure. You boarded the Bliss and took it home with you. 🙌

"Turns out joy is persistent. Creativity is patient. And Curiosity? That girl never dies. She just disco naps until it’s time to boogie again." What a great sentence. Truman Capote might have written it.

Thanks, Steve. I often wonder if Truman and I would be friends or foes. I doubt, given our personalities, there would be anything in between. lol My girl Curiosity is all about the disco naps lately! :-p
