A rooted plant will grow sometimes without fertilizer, but other times it may not be the ideal season for it. Your connecticate is a good idea, it just might take some time to germinate.

You know I’m inclined to follow your breadcrumbs, offered in love to your readers, so I did. You also know I’m prone to take the occasional rabbit hole route, so I did! Straight from The Clash to Khatchatourian’s “Spartacus and Phrygia”, a quite lively piece in its own right. 😊

Waning, and waxing, and ChatGPT, oh my! I can imagine that the content of your Invitation Questions could determine response rates. (ChatGPT would certainly know! 😬) The question you formulated for Session #3 puts the process more in the prospective respondents’ laps. We like to believe we’re in control. 😉

We’re I to respond, for a date, I’d choose Jacinda Ardern, now the former Prime Minister of New Zealand. I’m pretty certain you’re wandering why.

1. I admired her strong, caring leadership of NZ while navigating the COVID crisis.

2. I admired her courage in seeking a leadership role in an otherwise traditionally male-dominated environment.

3. That she had such a grand time welcoming a visit to New Zealand by Stephen Colbert, while she was PM!

4: Finally, she didn’t let motherhood prevent her from performing her official duties as PM. She took her 3-month old daughter to the proceedings of a UN meeting of the General Assembly!

5. Oh, and she smiles easily... 😁

Pssst! Lovely bouquet. 💐🙃💐😊
