Telling me stories that shed light into who she was and in a way, who i was becoming. You helped me make sense of myself and i appreciate that. Thank you so much for the love, the quiet, reassuring acceptance and, finally for dragging me...

I discovered that i wanted to do more than just analyse things and write about them, but that i also wanted to to use words to heal people. Now, i don't know if i have succeeded but I do know that i will continue working on this all the way into the oncoming year so at some point, it will have to work. I recognize that art is nothing if it does not add value therefore, i am dedicated to addin...
