Good morning my DU family,

Well, after a night of tossing and turning, here we are.

One of the great experiences that every person should encounter in their lifetimes has to be feeling communal Love. Even though I hardly slept a wink last night, I was remarkably calm and not anxious.

What I was, was bouyued (sp?) by all the wonderful words, wishes and vibes from you in Debm55's post from yesterday. I intentionally answered a few every hour or so, to keep my spirits up and it worked like magic.

I can only hope that my words in their aims meet the incredible standard that yours so eloquently set.

Please have a day filled with the satisfaction that your gifts are not just meaningful and valued, but sustaining to others in so many ways. Please know that you are surrounded by the gratitude and love that comes back to you in similar waves that your gifts were sent.

Have a fully nourished day DU.
Love, John

Thank you Thank you, Thank you!
