I made this video during a particularly difficult moment of discouragement and helplessness, and though I conveyed it in the vid itself, I also made another heartfelt tribute to all these characters who populate my mind and my emotions and towards whom I cherish great feelings: these are the characters I, as a biographer have chosen to write about and 'to feel', and here you will find all of them as I sought solace and reflection and a lessening of my pain through their own experience and through reflecting myself in them as if in a mirror. Here you will find them all: Prince Charles Edward Stuart, Boswell & Johnson, King Charles I and his loyal Cavaliers, Mozart, Louis XVII, l'Aiglon (Napoleon II) and his family, Alexei Romanov and his healer 'Novic', as he called him, etc... And guess what, all such feelings have once more helped me through it, so that now I am keepin' keepin' on along my road along with them and all the other beautiful things in my life. But I wanted to post the video anyway, as a remembrance of what I have fought and won thank to the inspiration these people give me and to the friendship of such amazing fellow beings as Paul. Thank you! Music is provided by Coldplay's wonderful song "What if?", from their "X and Y" album.
