Day 268: [OT].

Sorry about the deletion of the last journal entry; I had a minor personal crisis and the more rosy-coloured tone in that entry looked less true than it was.

I'm very grateful to have received the kind comments, and hope that the authors won't take offense of their removal.

I am $working my way out of this personal/financial hell, so I can arrive in .au this Friday in one piece. Judging from past experience, it should get better as soon as I'm not in .tw. ;-)

Meditation 17 Nuc lento sonitu dicunt, morieris. Now this bell tolling softly for another, says to me, Thou must die.

...No man is an island, entire of itself; every man is a piece of the continent, a part of the main. If a clod be washed away by the sea, Europe is the less, as well as if a promontory were, as well as if a manor of thy friend's or of thine own were. Any man's death diminishes me, because I am involved in mankind; and therefore never send to know for whom the bell tolls; it tolls for thee...

I sincerely hope that whatever it is that is troubling you, ceases to do so quickly.

Money is a pain

I'm sorry to hear about your troubles. Money is a pain in the ass for me as well. It never just DWIM. ;) I wish you the best in getting it resolved, becoming at peace with it or both.

Take Care.
