Now this I find truly wonderful, because in starting to reply to your other comment, about Blessed Xenia, I started writing about a *golden thread* that I thought we were sending each other across a chasm. But then I deleted that part because I didn't know what I was talking about.

And then I came here and read this comment.

How about that--amazing.

(Meaning: the thread was this line, which is the connection across the distance, maybe?)
