Thanks for your comments. I wonder sometimes if I am self-delusional in attempting to maintain a positive outlook. Being dopamine deficient, I can't trust my feelings, so for me it is a mental exercise. I don't want readers to think that I suffer from some type of Parkinson's Stockholm Syndrome. If given the choice, I could have gotten along nicely without it.

Beautifully expressed as always. Love your last point about gaining more than lost. I’m inclined to believe the same in my case but then I wonder if I’m just doing that very human thing of making the best out of a bad hand.
