I was looking for anything in the message that indicated "now" (as I need you to "RSVP now" :-) that might have gotten you a response sooner?

I think everything we learn in T then has to face the test of time. We have a breakthrough but as my T pointed out to me, that's not all there is, you don't stop and live happily ever after, new tasks come up where you have to practice what you've learned and put it to good use.
