I think that open vulnerability is a great strength, in a similar vein to how admitting ignorance is actually a sign of great intelligence. It’s easy to melt when you feel more than most…,most people wish they could burn like you.

Death has its clock. It will not be rushed or pleaded with, but when it comes, you cannot escape its grasp. This piece was done nicely.

We seek the same end but I choose Dylan Thomas’ “Do Not Go Gentle into That Good Night” way of getting there. Good write 🌼

If you can approach your death with this kind of dignity, then you will have won.

Daniel this is magnificent. My eyes were riveted to the screen as your tale unfolded. A work of dark literary quality that was incredible to read. Truly a publishable story. Knowing this is just a chapter in your book amazes me. Truly fantastic story telling.
