"Well, I’ve been down so God damn long…"

“... that it looks like up to me.”That’s from The Doors. Music I grew up with. And the present gloom reminds me of this wonderful song.Those of you who know me for any length of time will acknowledge that I’m an eternal optimist.The optimism is sort of DNA encoded in me, dictated by the people I grew up with, especially my father, the books that I read, the music that I listened to – and, perhaps, by the times that we then lived in.
