The fishbone… a shout out to resilience and the cycle of life and death; even after something or someone has passed, their essence remains. Somehow, we endure the loss. 


I lost a close friend this week and feel it. She was the best boss I ever had. She challenged me and softened me. She watched me both fall in love with and lose Michelle. She was the only other person Michelle wanted at her side the day of her brain bleed. She watched us travel the country and return; travel, move and return again. She was full of grace. Although it is an immense loss, I know how to endure a loss. So here is to the fishbones that will remind me to honor Mary and keep her essence alive. 


Hug your people. Stay well and stay strong. ☮️
