Maika, I will check out that stuff when I get a chance. I want to reread the book again first, and I also have The Happiness Advantage on my shelf to get through as well. Thanks for the recommendations.
Sia, isn't it strange how connected we can feel with anonymous strangers on the internet? You are right, it is all about the honesty and vulnerability that so many people show here that encourages such strong bonds to form.
Nicole, the openness of the future is exciting. I already spent 4 years living abroad, so I know what it is like. Honestly, at this point I am not sure if that is the direction I will be going, it really depends on the options available to me, but I want to explore as many possibilities as I can.
Neffer, thanks for the advice, and I can say that if I had the chance to return to the land of mate, I'd be there in a heartbeat.
As a quick aside, I am pretty sure that I ran into my W last night as I was biking to dinner with friends. She was on a bike going the other direction. I didn't see her til the last second and wasn't 100% sure it was her, but she was looking at me pretty intently. I just kept on going. Maybe I could have said hi, but whatever. I had a nice dinner with friends and for a while forgot that it even happened.
