Hey Clint, You're dealing with present situations where your past struggles have an opportunity to pop up and make an appearance. You're sorting things out, which is understandable. Breath deep and appreciate the now, which I'm sure you do! I like the quote at the end from Robert Rauschenberg, "...one needs just a certain amount of trouble". Perspective is everything, it seems. Happy Birthday Robert Rauschenberg! Good read, Thanks Clint!

Thank you, Larry. It’s not even Christmas, but it seems ghosts of Christmases past have been visiting in the middle of the night. A couple of nights ago they from my work life. Last night they were from my love life. Gonna keep that nocturnal clusterfuck to myself. hahaha “Trouble” is a good word for it and Rauschenberg’s combines have been a big influence on me…once I decided they weren’t just piles of junk. It took me awhile to come around to appreciating them. Cheers!

Clint 🫂🫂🫂 I sometimes get the ghosts of the past floating past me too but the solid walls of the Ivory Tower and drawbridge keep them away. 😎👍 Cheers DougT 🇫🇴🇬🇧
