An hour ago a friend shared a video of a Cambridge professor sharing a gothic fiction reading list, and I downright SQUEALED and GUSHED about every single book listed.

Now it’s just after 7pm and I’m ready for bed.

The energy whiplash is astounding.

And now another dear, wonderful, beautiful soul full of love and light has passed far, far too soon. So vibrant and healthy, my age, yet a heart attack took him down.

Hold your loved ones close. Remind them how much you love them.

The wonderful parts of intergenerational friendships are the ways in which parent/child, mentor/mentee, and common interest, values, and goals from same-generation friendships blur.

We forget our 20/30/50-year age difference and simply befriend one another, celebrate each other, offer advice.
