Neil, I 'd gone over to other threads after I 'd read the post, not knowing if I could say something meaningful. Lots of love.
But I 've come back to say : I see a beauty about you, the ' light ' of the witness issuing through your mind's eye, scanning your life's experience, the prevailing want and sight, the humdrum and little things ... all coming back to the heart.
