Thank you, Love… for choosing me.” “Thank you for giving me the honor of your honest presence, experience, unconditional love, and partnership. To be loved by you and be believed in by you was the feeling of illumination. Your vibrant spirit supercharged and propelled those you loved toward the freest expressions of life’s wild beauty.
