Re: Penny Has Her Wings
My feelings are mixed with this news. On one side I'm so sad thinking how devastated her family must be. How her daughter might be feeling the first moments of deep intense paralyzing mourning. It's so heartbreaking. And then I feel Penny's energy in the air today and imagine she is zipping through the clouds reuniting with Chrissy, Denise, Brenda, Amanda, Sheila, Jessica and all our other sisters that have earned their wings. And that makes me feel peaceful.
