Ode to my friend and confidante Tania Bird:
She saw beauty and grace when I felt none.
She saw intelligence and wisdom when I felt I had none to offer.
She saw a bountiful spirit when mine so damaged and worn.
She never stopped believing in our dream to educate, empower, encourage and provide empathy.
She loved me during my best and worst times!
She taught me the following lessons;
To never harbor hate or anger.
To never harbor hate or anger.
To never take myself too seriously, and laugh at my humanity.
That the perfect mother doesn’t exist she is only a myth.
That we can never be too fabulous, or too extravagant with our goals and dreams.
That our friends will always provide a soft and safe place for us to fall but it is ultimately our responsibility to choose our happiness.
She has uplifted me to great heights with her guidance and acceptance!
Love and light,
