Thanks, friend. Missing your words. Maybe we need to think about getting the band back together....Only one show, even.

I fight with my anger too. And I often wonder why anger is the emotion I dole out when people should “know better” even when with the same breath I ponder, how would they know better, how could they...in this world?

Thank you for sharing the emotion that is so natural yet often shuddered away and kept silent. Those parts of us serve a purpose too, and I quite like the idea of sharing tea not only to soothe but to invite that part of me to share, whatever it is it needs to.

Thank you for sharing of your Abi and her life, I am honored that you share those precious and some surely painful memories with us here.

Sweet friend I am also grateful to hear that the end of treatments are nearing and that God is even closer these days.

Much love 🤍

Nicole, my dear. I love hearing your words. More than you know. With radiation wrapping up, thinking about our poetry swim. Maybe it's time. Whatcha think? Would love to see you and the gang...
