"I hazard the explanation that a shock is at once in my case followed by the desire to explain it. I feel that I have had a blow; but it is not, as I thought as a child, simply a blow from an enemy hidden behind the cotton wool of daily life; it is or will become a revelation of some order; it is a token of some real thing behind appearances; and I make it real by putting it into words...." - Virginia Woolf, A Sketch of the Past

Wow, great quote. That's EXACTLY where and what I am right now. Less waiting for it, more pro-actively grabbing by the lapels and shaking.
Seem to whom? Here where you are known, the wait is over.
(All best from unseemly, somewhat interesting, not so modern, Maine, where you're missed).
