Showing Original Post only (View all)DU, I love you! I saw the worry thread and was overwhelmed with gratitude! [View all]
I am grateful to have such a loving community who cares about people, in this case, me.
I want you to know that I care about YOU and I'm sorry I haven't posted a Friday afternoon art essay in a while. I had written one and it is fine. But I have been dragged down by some personal issues and have struggled with them. I won't go into details -- too painful -- but this was too distracting for me to do much else.
Now that my head is clearing -- and having your backing -- well, it heartens me.
Actually, I hope to return to Italy in the spring -- to Florence, to show a friend the art that regular tourists don't get to. But my friend's health issues might negate the trip. It makes me heartsick, but I must accept reality.
I'm almost there. Been posting a lot on campaign stuff. It's not the same as the way I felt about Bernie but there are new virtues I have been delighted with in the Clinton campaign.
My already written essay is on Bernini's "Ecstasy of St. Teresa"which was a joy to write.
Thank you Malaise and all of you who have been such faithful DU friends. My heart is healing.
I am truly humbled by your caring.
