My dad died.
My aunt died.
My mom went to the funeral home to see her beloved sister laid out, and took a spill, and she's in the hospital in enormous pain, and completely unable to move her leg.
And I have no prospects for theatrical work.
So it's time for me to focus on the things I have to be grateful about.
- I saw my father several times this past summer. He knew how I felt about him, I knew how he felt about me. It had all been said. Nothing to regret.
- I've reconnected with my brothers & sisters.
- I've made a bunch of new friends.
- I got a beloved new camera.
- Despite the departure of the Lagemæ, I'm still blessed with two amazing friends in the city. Four, actually. Well, five.
- The fact that my heart can survive rejection means that it can also put itself out there again.
- Long walks in the city.
- There is, indeed, so much simple beauty in the world that sometimes it makes my heart ache.
I'm sure the more I think about it, the more this list is gonna grow.
