Year Gone to Memory Lane

But I am sure that you have MORE valid reasons to spend a year ahead. I am very glad that in spite of my disability you chose to work with us. And I am sure that in spite of all the hullabaloo over the Acceptances and Rejections - you know this as much as I do - it matters not.

Let's keep enjoying our 'disjointed times.' I was probably thinking of an Eliotian verse. It could just been borrowed from Yeats. But may be you can look into it. It will take 10 min to read.
