    Yes a special happy birthday to EricR. Eric has had an account here since 2016 and has been a good friend during that time, It's interesting how patterns tend to repeat, and I don't think Eric would mind my saying that he has always struck me as someone very similar to our Joshua -- similar "radio" voice, background in Buddhism, poetry, and very creative.

    Thank you so much for the BD greetings. Very kind of you especially considering my...umm...lack of participation here! :)

    I also heard from another online friend who I hadn't connected with for quite some time. I've actually been somewhat out of the online picture generally for the past 2 years. I've just finally uploaded some music videos to an otherwise dormant youtube channel. There are only 2 pieces there, uploaded last week. More are coming.

    EricR
    Welcome to my youtube channel. I offer original music and videos that I hope offer a momentary respite from the challenges of daily life. We are more than…
    www.youtube.com

    I'm also updating my old mindmuser.com website and am starting to post there. I'm really not sure what I'm going to do there, but it seems that I am drawn to offer some information I've picked up over my 67 years.

    As I've said to Cassius privately in the past, I find the kindness in this group quite alluring since I am a terrible Epicurean :) .

    I've pretty much tossed all philosophies out in favour of sorting out my own approach to life. That does not mean I don't consider various ideas, but some people are very attached to theirs. So you can imagine the kind of reaction I can expect from being so independent and declaring the value of a free mind.

    Anyway, thank you so much for thinking of me.

    Oh, thank you so very much!
