Re: Life is a celebration of that which we can do
FOB,
Your path has been one of the harder ones here, beginning at a much younger age, when hopes are so high for the future that is in front of you. Your candid sincerity says so much about you. I can still see you, in the Seattle darkness of a rainy parking lot, holding out a bouquet of friendship. You are forever beautiful to me. I am so glad some of us met in person.
A.A.
