Hi Y'all, Thank you. I needed to read what each of you said. I agree with both. Although there isn't mutual exclusion, there has been wasted energy that could be put to better use. I love how the conversation goes on here as we wait, and Joni we will wait for you with love in times of trouble. You taught us Sisotowbell Lane and model for us outspokenness. These lyrics keep popping up in my soul of late: "Sometimes it is Spring, sometimes it is not anything, a poet can sing, sometimes we try, yes we always try." Yes, "somehow in spite of trouble ours will be ever lasting love." We are here because we love you Joni. You have brought a very interesting and strong group of loves together here. My heart is full of gratitude.
