Since being catapulted into this grown up world, I’ve been bearing this unremitting sort of gratefulness from the realization and reality of what won-de-rful mentors I’ve had in my life.  Never could I repay them, nor with words fully elucidate how much they mean to me.  Still, to

Wendy Gilbert, the one who taught me to dance,

Victoria Finlayson, the one who encouraged me to keep dancing,

Julianne Stoker, the one who taught me to write,

Carolyn Weber, the one who inspired me to keep writing,

Greg Spencer, the one who helped me to heal, and

Joanna Baniaga, the one who made me want this Christian life–

Thank you. 

With all of my heart, thank you.

You will never know on this side of eternity just how much you mean to me.
