Gracefully Ravaged
Fearfully and Wonderfully
Life, drifting from day into night
It’s ludicrous how fast it takes flight
A child, young and free
A senior- magically
Graduating into the twilight

Thoughts on Vocal and the way the world is
"Death cannot stop true love, only delay it." – Wesley in The Princess Bride. I decided to come back to Vocal on a very cold and dark night at the end of December. I had been, and still am, convalescing from a horrible staph infection that had gone misdiagnosed for months. This, paired with the increasing challenges of being healthy, making the best choices for my co-parented child, being a wife, and being a director at a new job, was a lot to manage.
