...and to All, Many Abrazos

As the year winds down, and I contemplate (with extravagant joy) the end of all my treatments, I am filled with gratitude and relief. Despite the very large and challenging boulder that tried to mow us down this year, I also have many things for which to be grateful.

Aside from all the love and support I have received from those immediately around me, my family of blogueros and blogueras around the world have surely contributed to the energetic healing that has brought me thus far, practically unscathed. Except for a few scars - which are mostly visible to a very select few - and a punky little 'do, I look no different. Yet I am transformed within in so many wonderful and positive ways.

Thank you all for the almost 4,000 visits I have received in the 11 months I've been typing my thoughts into the 'sphere! I find that astonishing! Thank you for talking me off the ledge of abrazo-lessness, and helping me find the strength to get out there and finally hug someone. Ok, several someones. As I continue to become stronger (and stay awake past 9 pm), I am certain that I will again be enjoying my Tango with far more regularity and endurance.

Alex wanted to know about our Tango fantasies a while back. I posted mine. But I also have a hope. Or a wish. That someday, somehow, it would be possible to meet and dance with all of you.

May all your wishes and fantasies come true, at least those having to do with Tango :-) And may the New Year bring you more joy than you can imagine.
