Dear Blakcloud, My heart goes out to you in terms of what the future may hold. But your attitude, "but not being able to ride my Rivendell home is even worse!", inspires me. Thank you for that. I cannot imagine what you had to do to accomplish what you did. Whatever good you could do with the people you worked with is acknowledged. I don't know how you managed that and dealt with it, but it is sincerely appreciated.
Our dear friend Hugh has it right. Things are put in our path for a reason. And there is always the possibility it's going to be better. That WILL happen.
