It sounds like you've had a lovely life, full of glorious experiences, both good and bad, but mostly a good amount of great things that happened to you! I bet you have a lot of interesting stories to talk about! I would love to hear them someday! I surely loved reading your illustrious piece this morning! What a brilliant write, Great Work!!
