Commentary I attached to the VISA approval picture on my FaceBook page:
Alex Mercedes I love that it comes after a sleepless night (opening the envelope in that altered state that sleep deprivation induces) ...preceded by a night full of disturbing dreams and premonitions about the VISA (so much for the accuracy of whatever clairvoyance I might claim). I love that it comes after I'd surrendered, made peace with myself and accepted that it might come...or it might not. (I was making plans to catch the Matisse show at NYC MoMA as consolation if the VISA didn't come through).I love that life has felt like slogging through mud for many weeks and that I kept slogging ... and that I am going to Brasil!!!! (a happy ending/beginning!)
