@Historylover I like your metaphor about kindness. I am a metaphor/quote type of person. I will not forget this metaphor. I have to learn how to be kind to myself and to respect myself. It is strange how well I can give so much kindness and I am very respectful in an old fashioned way but I do not give that to myself. I have to learn. Time is something I worry about a lot. I am getting better at it though. 
Thank you for today, you have taught me some things and reminded me of some things. I appreciate that. 

As your name would suggest, I am assuming you are a history lover?
