Some great cause, some new decision, offering each bloom or blight,
And the choice goes by forever twixt that darkness and that light.”

David - You asked something about The Unexpected Universe in your friend request. I glanced at the message and saw the title, but I clicked approve at the same moment and the message disappeared :P
Dear David, I am so happy we have connected.I would like to thank you for adding me to your friend's list - it was very nice of you. I look forward to reading your book reviews, comments, and recommendations.
Peace and happiness be with you,
Robin
