Fascinating. I'm in "The Waiting Place" right now. Lost. Not wanting to venture out of home unless I have to. However, this Saturday ... Saturday, October 17, 2026, ... is going to be a key decision day for me. It will determine whether I stay the course ... which could mean my "soul" ... or venture into uncharted territory where I cannot foresee the potential result(s). Fear sits beside my this week but I reserved a seat for courage ... it's just that courage is a bit tardy right now.

What is eerie about your story ... despite the unintentional Halloween bend to it ... is the timing. Fate. Destiny. Kindred. Whatever. Your story came at a time that has encapsulated my own indecision into decision and do what Captain James T Kirk does best ... to boldly go where I have not gone before.

I appreciate your timely story. Thanks.
