Glad it brought you a laugh! I need to include more humour in my work and this is evidence that it works :)

From the narrative, it appears that the power in question is not that of denial, rather of reflection. Had you not reflected on that experience, you would not have realized that you are in denial. And I think that's how one develops awareness of what they are experiencing, positive or negative.

Fair point - your comment also highlights the central focus of this newsletter, which is reflection.

So grateful that you have put "denial" into the gracious context of hope - - should we add wishful thinking, and wild imagination, defeating the odds...I'm gonna chomp on this bit for a while. Love it !!

You know, reflection helps us see the good in all. Never would denial be seen as good but then here we are :) Thank you for adding this, amiga.
