We have yet to know whether this is auspicous or just accident, right? Your writing a life, though, whatever the frame, is anything but tedious. It's important.

Agreed. I had a moment of concern that I might be whining. Anything but that.

Only you, Susie. You make me laugh and feel all tender and kind of protective at the same time. I would have been scared to pieces. I love that you mythologize your life.

There were several older women around when I went down the escalator and they all looked very concerned. People identify.

SO glad you’re OK! Personally, I don’t née you to be writing about it or mythologizing it. But whatever makes you feel better is fine with me, of course.

Can you say what you mean by "don't need?" Is it tedious?

Someone else said she was glad you were OK and writing about it. And I believe it was you who mentioned mythologizing though that may have been someone else too ( I’m watching a movie right now so I’m not going to go back and look at all the comments). Anyway, I am just thankful you’re OK whether or not you’re turning the experience to any creative or intellectual or meaningful purpose.

Wow! And you were able to see the fall as a metaphor. A true writer/philosopher are you. Thank goodness you’re ok. 💚

I am and as I said last week … mythologizing my life is my MO.

Yikes! All the reasons I hate to travel these days, and some new ones!

It’s a test. I got a 77.
