I have been working on this labor of love on an empty stomach while under the cloud of many distractions. If I told you that what held me up was the foreward, you'd probably laugh but it is true. The simplest piece became the most difficult. It became a beautiful dedication instead...as are most things these days.
It's funny but some that know me may ask why do this? A question that requires me to share a truth about myself some will never understand. Simply, I intend to live forever...in every way that I can. As will those lives that I have touched and those lives I have been touched by. I've written about many things and many loves. My family, my friends and lovers. I hold them in my heart today and when I reach heaven standing before the throne, God will remember them too as being part of the fabric that held my soul together. You will know them and honor them as I do. My love will stand all tests of time breathed out into this plain of heaven. It doesn't matter if I gain notoriety for this work nor do I care if anyone buys it. My fame can never exceed the love I have shared in my writings. For me, that's more than enough. So who or what is "pretty"? That is mine to know and I'm sure if you read deep enough...you'll see someone or something you too can call "pretty". Now...to all else that needs doin...
