Is Richard possibly the loveliest man ever? :-)

I'm so happy that he made a full recovery. I am going through a low level episode at the moment but I KNOW that I've been through way worse AND because of having such good practices like Mindfulness, Meditation, Yoga, even walking, that it helps keep the 'Black dog' from trying to devour me whole like he's done so many times in the past.

I wish Richard and of course you, Doug, and anyone reading this all the best <3
