To all those who have come before,

I appreciate everything we’ve endured

lest we faded into an obscurity beyond comprehension. Don’t

kill your darlings no matter how tempting

it may seem.

Never in existence or any type of

good place

did I imagine rencountering someone as

omni-benevolent as you, someone who

makes every day worth living, who

can make

our world a better and more

magnificent place just by existing. Thanks for just being you, for

everything.
