Stories about life, love, death, and what comes after.
"The view of the human world I could see with my eyes had flattened, like a scene printed on a heavy theater curtain. And then the curtain parted just a fraction.

What was real was what I could see through that split in the curtain and what I saw was a holy thing."
Eight years ago I prayed to get out of this living hell so I could be with Mike again. Today, in the same Mike-free world, I'm prone to ending texts and emails with "I love this life!"
