Andrew P - Thanks man, of course this was helpful. Yes what I wrote felt good to write. When I began, the little white DB box we are so familiar with was staring at me - I was going to write something very different, and then the above came out.
A book I feel in love with once, until I didn't, then I realized such irony from the story. It would do all well here to read it, you know the name: The Little Prince. Your comment, conjured it so I dug it out of a stack, been a long time, but your comment took my mind straight there.

Why you should read it? A quote...
"What does 'tamed' mean?" asked the Little Prince.
"It means 'to create ties with'" the fox answered. "...if you tame me, we'll need each other. You'll be the only boy in the world for me, I'll be the only fox in the world for you. One sees clearly only with the heart. Anything that's important is invisible to the eye." the fox said.
"I'm beginning to understand," the Little Prince said. "There's this rose flower...I think she has tamed me."
"It's all the time you've spent on your rose that make it so important, " the fox said. "Once you've tamed something, you're responsible for it forever. You are responsible for your rose."
Hehehe - smiling yet AP? interesting how the mind works.
