You're welcome, and thanks for the great comment. It's always great to hear how people deal with themselves.

avant-garde,
Hiding under blankets is a specialty of mine: coming to consciousness under down, floating back down deeper until the time is unavoidable, then waking and making the transition. Lovely post.

Avant -

Beautiful prose shedding light on perpetual sleep and the actors found within.

Your writings are beautiful avant. Satiny. Smooth. Evocative.

Another big thank you.The search or quest for single scapegoats are now the norm in International crisis managment,hence it always fails. Look at the balkans, if the US leaves, civil wars starts the same day. While they have all ruled that Milosovic was the cause.Once again thank you.

A million thanks for your support. Since this article was written, the second rounds of Liberia's presidential elections were held and Ellen Johnson Sir-leaf won. She will therefore be sworn in in January as the first lady on continental and extra continental africa to be an executive president. Once again thank you for your contineous support.

Have you ever prayed to forgive someone for something you thought they did to you? If you are fortunate enough, you will suddenly realize that they have done nothing: it was in wanting them to be what you wanted that caused the hurt. Upon release, they are free with you.

You will remember why your enemies exist: to show you that they are not responsible for your peace, or your happiness, or your love.

I used to study words assiduously, until I realized that no one understood what I was saying. I guess there can be too much of a good thing.

The feeling of boundless freedom and innocence everywhere is proof enough.

Avant,
Whenever I read you, it feels like I am in a fairytale watching. You do write so beautifully and it is always a joy. This post, though beautifully written, went a little over my head. I was fine until I got to the end.

well written...
but i didn't really understand this one...maybe i should read it again....

my favourite words.
you use "visage" and "winsome" two of my favourite words that I can never remember to use.
