much gratitude

Thank you!

Many thanks to all the people who have supported me on my journey and  showed me the path on which I now walk.  Especially, thank you to my wife, Laura, daughter Maeve, and my parents and brother.    Life has been, I believe, challenging for those around me as I navigated through my mental health adventures  to arrive where I am now.  I anticipate  that the fruits of their support (and frustration) will bloom as I continue  on my  path towards mental wellness and, possibly, self-realization.
