Overall, yes, it does. But I've been sick a long time (by my definition--can't write) and I'm in insurance hell and the writing floats out of reach-- A tiring place to be.

On the other hand, I retain hope that healing, most of it, is a possible thing. And that there will be interesting and even joyful work in the future.

It's still eerie how often these blasted things can be a small mirror into your life.
