‘Death remains my intimate shadow partner. It has been with me since birth, always hovering close by. I understand one day we will finally waltz together into the ether. I hope when that time comes, I die with the satisfaction of a life well-lived, unapologetic, joyful, & full of love.’

So many people... Mom, Gran, Novella, Cheryl, Molly, Tinu, Dion, too many, too many to name, my heart holds them all. 😭😖

I miss them all so much. Their wisdom, love, laughter. I miss them all so much.
