Thanks so much, Teacher! You certainly are one HERE!

Thanks for your post AND all the clarity and wisdom in it.

“The Golden Hour”. You really are a good teacher. You conducted a strong, memorable lesson for us all.

Glad you’re still here, to add further insights when it’s easy and convenient for you. YOUR health and healing both remain Top Priority, though.
