This made me smile, that thought of the sun making the moon blush. Just also wanted to pass by to say very, very belated Thank you! For reading through a bunch of my writes and even adding them to your faves. It is an honor for me if somebody is able to relate and be moved by any of my writes. Thank you for sharing your thoughts, very deeply appreciated. God bless you!

This is such a wonderful, heartfelt comment, Kabuteng, and I so greatly appreciate you taking the time! I don't get a lot of "reading" times these days, but I was drawn to your style and enjoyed your work very much. Blessings to you, my friend! :-)
