distrust, sadness, depression …
Ours is both an inward journey,
As well as an outward journey.
We may try to cloister ourselves from the external…

Nice to have this continuing contact with you! Thanks for your assist on the roommate need. Though I didn't fill it right away, now the previous tenant has come back, so I'm all set until next month, when the other room is opening up. Hope to see you around...
