Loving Her Was Like Driving a New Maserati Down a Dead End Street
Our connection was so good! Like a hot fast car you can’t take anywhere. I read recently that we become whole and complete ourselves but there’s work we can only do on ourselves in relation to someone else. I think I felt a lot of grief about the work we were going to do together?
Remembering Ria Pell
I know now that what’s most important in love are experiences with loved ones. And Ria gave me such great experiences. I’m so grateful.
Getting Out Ahead of Seasonal Depression

But 2020 happened the way it did, all tours were called off and I was left wondering if maybe I could do an online Bachelorette party.
