While you were sleeping

It’s not your fault if you are afraid.

Everything you have experienced in your life up to this point has was designed to make you feel this way. Powerless. Scared. Maybe even despairing. Hiding in your home. Afraid to go out. Afraid to go to work.

My mother was here from 3.13.40 to 2.29.96.

[This photo of us was taken on my 26th birthday]

This Leap Day is an important anniversary for me because the day itself, being rare, is causing me to pause and reflect. I am older than she ever got to be. I feel like it’s so important to make these years really meaningful, since I am blessed to have them, when she (not to mention so many others) was not. Keep reading
