I always enjoy reading your thoughts. I just finished composing my own post today, then settled into reading yours and was surprised with some of the parallels in personal experience.

This has been a time of reflection for me, after the heady days late last year. The crash to reality in the markets has been a crash to reality in myself. I was able to perceive my excesses and illusions. It is always welcoming and comforting to have the veil of delusion lifted, once the pain has receded.

May our future be even more ennobling than today.
