This is so incredibly f’ing awesome! The acts of kindness by the many but specifically the one’s who took time from their lives to accomplish this selfless deed! When done……all of you…….the Human Spirit is alive and well!!

Over the past many months I read the messages that Jennifer posted documenting her struggle with this disease. I often approached them with dread and trepidation but ultimately found that Jennifer’s candour and frank dialogue took the edge off of the difficulties that she was sharing.
Two weeks ago I asked Jennifer whether she would like to listen to a poem that I wrote while thinking about her circumstances. I also gave her the option to tell me to go blow smoke in the event that I was being presumptuous. She listened to it, thanked me for thinking of her at this time and was kind enough to say that she liked it. The text is below.

***

there are waterfalls

if autumn is our genesis
we are leaves upon the breeze
some alighting on the water
some carried to the sea

though tarrying in lazy eddies
strained through a fallen tree
whether plunged down tortured, bursting channels
though drifting on the lee

there are waterfalls in many courses
something greater wills this to be
when the passage asks too great a burden
we can sometimes choose to be free

does nature ask then nothing of us
we may thrive or simply be
the route is ours to be determined
er zijn veel paden naar de zee

In reply to Jennifer Ellis. Jennifer, I am not good with words whatsoever. It has been many many years. Like others have said, your work ethic was one to remember all these years later. I always knew coming in on day shift that I wouldn’t have to worry about walking into a gong show and was always a pleasure when working afternoons, you coming in with your coffees. When looking at my godawful tattoo, I will always think of you. Hopefully your turtle tattoo looks better than mine all these years later I know you’re at peace, rest easy.

This is hard. I have so much love for you my dear friend. You are such an amazing human being. I remember the first time I saw you. At the dance on Seminole, I was so intimidated by your awesomeness. You were definitely the coolest person I had ever met. I can’t remember how I ended up at your apartment one day but I got to know you little by little and then all of a sudden we are making candles in my store and you are there supporting me during a challenging time in my life. I still have one of those candles and I will light it for you, in honour of you. I am forever grateful our paths crossed and you were a part of my journey.
