I cannot explain the contentment the thought of our being family brings to my soul. You are one of the finest parts of this planet… you transcend any one body that can only physically move you from one place to another. And that’s why the universe needs you more, and I am a blessed man because I have had your spirit in my heart from the moment we said “hello.”

When I was young, I was foolish enough to believe that I could change the world. Now as I journey toward wisdom, I know that the only thing we are here to be, is for each other. The ultimate promise of your unyielding vigilance, is that we will never really know the fullness of our agency and the love we seed. Strangely enough, when we step away, this very mystery and uncertainty is our greatest gift.

From releasing our lanterns into the air high above Mile High Church in the days following our divorces and ending up at the Buffalo Rose doing shots of tequila and dancing with cowboys (she did), to talking ourselves out of jumping on an airplane and flying to Aspen with a couple of random ( but hot ) strangers at a dance party back in the 80’s.

So this is a first and I love it … words I send to you now so you can read and can easily be changed into a poem to be used on the website… You are changing a narrative and it is beautiful to be a part of it! A Different Story.
