I was born in the last part of

the last century in the last millennium. I am alive in the first quarter of this century in this current millennium

and still feel accomplished. After all what greater craft,

what more perfect poem than that of survival?

Live my friends. 

It is the only revenge.

Cf. from the filmed version of Dr. Zhivago--"Life, whatever the circumstances, is good; it is a miracle no matter what."

yes it is a miracle. Covid has ravaged the town. Many will not inherit this truth.....thank you my friend.

Your two last lines.. are.. incredible. and - indelible on my tired mind. Maybe survival reads doing the appropriate things plus using defiance as a tool. Still working it out. Thank you yet again for sharing words that seem so obvious but take you to find them! I defy you do do nothing less than take care and keep safe, dear friend

dearest: I made it back from no internet. How I survived is still a miracle or witchcraft. Thank you for keeping me safe in your heart. dana

But.. but.. but - you survived! Hopefully no scars to show, no jaded mind.. just heaven high relief! Welcome back to the nest.. or whatever! :)

You still feel accomplished and that is a good attitude to have. You've kept your compass bearings through covid and coming out the other side. You go girl. Like the positivity here dana.
