Missing you so very much, but inspired even more.
I am at Bridgewater State College in preparation mode, filling out the online application for Columbia University. The final click and send has to be done Tuesday by 12:00 a.m. I have high hopes to do it tomorrow evening and relax on Tuesday, as I took it off. I am in great spirits. Thinking great thoughts; illuminating all the unnecessary ones. My energy has been shifted and I stand in a realm of appreciation. A huge amount of my inspiration comes from your walk, lovely. Those steps you took in grace. One foot before the next to Chemo therapy, not complaining. At least not loud enough for anyone to hear, always giving thanks for what you had and demonstrating your love through the pain. I am forever grateful, my inspiration.
Your dear friend and third sister,
Sasha

A writer Just Is
I love the following response that a English Professor shared with a woman who was grappling with the idea of whether as a blogger - the line of work she does writing, if it was suffice to call herself a writer.
His response is worth sharing with the world:
"I think if you write–then you are a writer. Period. I told my students (English class) that they are all writers. Whether for money or not, recognition or not. Some of us are more financially successful than others–but that does not define our success. Believe that you are a writer. Write. And the rest will happen. Right? Write? Right????"
