This is like a Irish blessing and a really good wedding toast, all rolled into one. Thanks for the sweet wishes, and may they apply to you, as well. I'll look forward to more and more of your postings! Happy 2024. xo

    Thank you, Rachelle, for the review. I have officiated a few weddings and usually include barbs directed at the groom. Now I have another word mash to keep him in check. LOL

I give this the most solid of 5 stars, hence the six, as there are some works and some things I find so worth saying and so worth celebrating that have been captured and expressed in this piece that I find so deeply necessary.
It's beautiful, straightforward, heartwarming, and powerful. It's deeply relatable; I see myself in your words, indeed.
So thank you.
I hope 2023 was blessed and 2024 treats you well. Thanks for the share. Cheers to a new year, and may YOU be well.

    Thank you so much for the six! I am touched you found it worthy and you identified with it in a personal way. This is, indeed, the way to start the New Year. There's no turning back now, is there?

I think you've beautifully and realistically framed us lot in a most charming and yet euphemistically brilliant way here dear friend, a most endearing and honest way, well done, and the same to you, blessings Roy

What a lovely tribute! I think you've captured our diversity as a writing community really well. :) One little spag error - "fundamentally". I have found this to be a really inspiring and motivating place to be over the past couple of months and have enjoyed actually writing again after a long hiatus. Enjoy 2024 and all the best for your own writing journey! :)
