I JUST HAD to comment. My husband and I visited Alaska on our 40 anniversary and stood in pretty much the same spot.with a picture of us pulled up and lovey feeling the power and glory of God’s creation. I just finish a year of cancer infusion treatments to enhance my ability to enjoy glory surrounding us longer and decreasing the chance of metatisis. So I love to sc troll and pick and chose what I read. Retired now I don’t have to read professional journals to keep my research fresh but I have become a collector of things I like, enjoy and where I find some solace, humor and invite into this chaotic whirlwind of policital with a need to insert the important of humanity collecting with the resets of creation, and observing from a different perspective. I try to find something to be happy about each day and your words reminded me to keep at it…I have signed up to browse the archives of your writing having first encountered it (as far as I know) just now. Thank you. I really mean your writing has touched me and I feel a connection. My grandparents and parents always talked about those with whom they had a connection as KINDRED Spirits. I will be exploring whether my hand is correct that we are and this serendipitous encounter was meant to answer my prayers to enjoy, live life in the moment, and do what I think makes me happy. We still have holiday decorations up and like the fire in your fireplace they creat a warmth in the space I use to recuperative from the side effects of the treatments and dream of living to see my grand kids mature and hope that my encouragements and answers to their questions in these hard times is enough to spiritually sustain them in this world where peace, kindness, justice, equality, tolerance and community is rare. Thank your again
