One needs to be conscious of those things NOW, because of how we aren't guaranteed any tomorrow. If it's something you don't want your survivors to come upon, consider lighting the match today. I recently did this with old love letters and feel much better. Didn't need 'em anymore; have their author instead!Anastasia Theodoridishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16092531121989260111noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18762198.post-43984465704405217352010-01-08T22:05:38.956-08:002010-01-08T22:05:38.956-08:00May you have many, many more.May you have many, many more.Milton T.

The travel reflections you have offered on this blog are the best I have ever read from an Orthodox perspective, and on par with the best that can I have read from any perspective.<br /><br />I have also greatly enjoyed your thoughts on political and social and literary matters.<br /><br />And, were it not for the blog, we would almost certainly have never met over beers.<br /><br />So, all in all, I am very thankful for your work.Ochlophobist https://www.blogger.com/profile/13751003558600087713noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18762198.post-18049801128357898052010-01-08T14:07:44.374-08:002010-01-08T14:07:44.374-08:00Congratulations!

There was your blog. Your writings are very enjoyable- Congratulations on post 500! Keep up the good work, we enjoy the drawing room.
