A pleasure, but XXOO? I don't know you well enough for smooches and hugs, and my trouble and strife might object.

Tilt, our dear friends form down under are notoriously good at affection and hospitality.
if she'd wanted to get down and serious with you, I'm sure you'd know it by now... and Retro's a mod... I hardly think he'd permit hanky-panky in his yard, somehow.... :jumping:

I am sooooo happy - How on earth could I be otherwise?! :D

Well, we play Scrabble over the computer from different rooms... typing to each other in different rooms should be nothing new.

Hey Steph!
Good to 'see' you here!
Welcome aboard!

“No lists of things to be done. The day providential to itself. The hour. There is no later. This is later. All things of grace and beauty such that one holds them to one's heart have a common provenance in pain. Their birth in grief and ashes.”
- Cormac McCarthy, The Road

Learn this from the waters:
in mountain clefts and chasms,
loud gush the streamlets,
but great rivers flow silently.

It does feel "homey" here, I've got to say. Yeah, for an internet board, this place can feel good!

Welcome, Steph!

Hi Stephanie,
hope all is well, and you enjoy it here!
Blog, Suttas, Aj Chah, Facebook.

He who knows only his own side of the case knows little of that. His reasons may be good, and no one may have been able to refute them.
But if he is equally unable to refute the reasons on the opposite side, if he does not so much as know what they are, he has no ground for preferring either opinion …
...
He must be able to hear them from persons who actually believe them … he must know them in their most plausible and persuasive form.
