I love Scotland and have enjoyed visiting Edinburgh many times. I was just sharing some photos of Scotland to a couple of friends today at lunch.
I'm sure you and others will be happy when the International Festival/Fringe is over and the crowds are much more manageable.
Enjoy the weekend.
Sit quietly, the answers will reveal themselves when you least expect them to. The past is gone, the present is a gift and you need to focus on today, allow the future to reveal itself when it is ready.
