What a beautiful essay that so eloquently summarized the state is the world right now. I love your writing justice. And your mom is certainly a special, spunky soul!

Beautifully expressed Justice and I love the photo. October was my hardest month from 1970 to 1986. Then it became my best. One thing is certain, change happens.

I have been experiencing that feeling of being in an alternate universe often this year. Family talking about things that happened in the past that didn't happen to me. Odd moments when I know I just slipped into a space that isn't my normal reality. I am very glad to hear someone else is experiencing timeline slips, even if the experience is different from mine.

As always, moving love filled written thoughts. Thank you.
