....so true Addy, especially when the thread is painful. We maybe would like to paint it invidible. But, then, the hues wouldn't be so varied and beautiful?

I am allergic to so many AD's that I can't take them. So I have tons of tears but have a hard time letting them flow until I reach a dangerous point. I am trying to find some natural alternatives. The H, H, and I that you mentioned need to be managed if one is to survive.

I like "The Prophet" too, much wisdom there.
