Mitch thanks for drawing my attention to this lovely read; it's so much fun to read how you wrote three years ago, compared to now. There's such a difference in the sense, I feel you're so much more assertive in the recent ones (although truth be told, I read a lot of the political ones to start with so I'm a little biased). I enjoyed seeing your writing in a different light, I've come to "hear your voice" -- and if you didn't tell me it was yours, I wouldn't have imagined it to be your voice.

How far into your journey here in Medium was this written?

Beautiful analogy and wonderfully described! Enjoyed the read my friend!!!
