The absence of light
I’ve been absent - I’m sure you’ve noticed. It was not my intent to leave with such a post hanging in the air like I have - indeed, it wasn’t my intention to leave at all. Thank you each for your responses. I think we each have a moment when doubt sets in. I’ve recovered from that - at least, learned to manage it, which is all any of us can do. Things happen, chips fall where fate, fairly or unfairly, has decided they should.
I’m back - at least, I’m at my home, embraced by familiarity and the warmth of the known. It’s the warm blanket I pull around me when cold reality sets in.
C, a friend from college, will be staying with me a while. He is one of 3 I count in the closest circle of friends. He makes my life better, and I love him for it.
I’ll write more when time finds me.
Darkness, Darkness, Darkness

Darkness, yes. But such friendships are the light. Or the silver lining, as the case may be.
Good to see your words.

tough times - they are rough, drag you screaming from the real world, wondering why they have to happen to you.
Trust little blessings will shower on you and bring the brightness back.
