I have begun to follow your blog, because I have become inspired by your work and it's rawness. This is the first blog I have ever followed. And I'm just catching up to speed, and this is the first full post from your blog I've read, but I have followed your art for a bit longer.

I can't imagine what it feels like to lose someone like you have. I don't know you personally, and you don't know me. And I don't know your friend D. Price, and I don't mean to disrespect their views on the universe. But I wanted to present a different idea than something greater than us peering down, throwing circumstances at us, then kicking back and spectating for sport. I have no doubt your friend's comments were well-intentioned, and perhaps they're correct. But what if the universe had nothing to do with this, because for some odd reason really bad things happen to good people. But the "universe" cared nonetheless, and something greater than any of us grieves with you, and wants you to know this life is temporary, but certain things are not held by death. And while we're trapped in this place of limited understanding, on the other side are eternal days of your talks with Patti , and she's healthy and strong, and the trials of this life only proved to be ways to carry more love into those moments.
