I will never, ever forget this line: "I was comforted by the thought there were so many people nearby who would be my friends." I read it twice before moving on ... I had a glimmer of what might be coming but didn't want to go there yet. Didn't want to grow up. This piece is at once enchanting and deeply grounding; heartbreaking and heart-mending. You have such a gift for letting multiple truths hang inside a piece, just as they are hanging inside you, integrating more and more as the days and years pass. Thank you for so generously sharing your wisdom. Grateful for you.
