These flashes of insight into your mind are both illuminating and heartbreaking, my dear friend. As with you, I don't think I'd know what to do with true love if it came my way. But I don't hold myself back or have expectations so I may never even recognize it if it does. I'm feeling the ouch in this one, intensely. Sending an infinite supply of hugs
