Welcome back. Sounds like what you were doing (here is a pat on the back which I know you were not seeking) was more important than these sweeps.
Each morning when I open my eyes I say to myself: I, not events, have the power to make me happy or unhappy today. I can choose which it shall be. Yesterday is dead, tomorrow hasn't arrived yet. I have just one day, today, and I'm going to be happy in it.
