remind me.

every now and then we all need reminding of what we mean. to people, to one person, to the world.
as i've been unpacking my life (yay!) i've found a few little bits and pieces that i have missed seeing day to day. this one i thought i would share with you. it is a note written to me, not by me, by an intelligent and independent young woman who i had the pleasure to lead. She was a natural outcast, considered by many to be snobbish or difficullt, and as a teenager, that hurt her. i didn't try to pigeon hole her, i just took each meeting and each emotion as it came. I was myself with her, more than many others i lead that year, because i trusted her to be able to handle me. whilst others found her hard to discipline, i found no need to discipline her at all.

"We can all be angels to one another. We can choose to obey the small stirring within, the little whispers that say 'go. ask. reach out. be an answer to someone's plea. you have a part to play. have faith.' we can decide to risk that he is indeed there, watching, caring, and cherishing us as we love and accept love. the world will be a better place for it and wherever they are the angels will dance" ~ Joan Wester Anderson ++ "Acept the things to which fate binds you and love the people with whom fate brings you together with but do so with all your heart." ~ Marcus Aelius Aurelius ++ I don't think you really need to be told that quote becoz you are the emodiment of the meaning as expressed through these words. Throughout gang show YOU have been MY angel showing me unconditional love and acceptance when everything seemed so dim. Through your spirit and light it gave me the permission, nay the comfortable arena, in which i could freely just be myself. A, I cannot express to you what you have done for me, nor can i explain what you mean to me. You showed me your whole heart, no questions asked. U are amazing, beautiful and more. You reached out to me and my time at gangshow was made better for it. Aye for an old fart you're pretty cool. and i guess angels must be dancing. <3 E.

that is all.
