My 💓 felt thanks for the Amazing ❤️s as well!
I recall that somewhere between Old French and Middle English they came up with the word Courage. Based on what little grasp of it's etymology I have, I think courage most literally means the quality of "having heart".
Trough the fog of anonymity I consider DUers of all stripes my friends, and for those regular posters, there is not one whom I do not adore and esteem and I am truly thankful to get to share in your experiences.
But through my own experiences, whether mundane or amazing, I find that this community encourages me to grow, gives me heart, and I cannot thank you all enough for that.
Oh, and those who gave me hearts, thank you so so much! It feels so good!
