from The Little Mermaid
“The veritable competition never was, never is and never will be between you and another person. It is, au fond, all about ‘actual you’ versus ‘potential you’. Remember! In this game, you are either ahead of the curve or you are a diamond in the rough; and in both instances you do not draw to a close until victory is yours.”
–The Little Mermaid, MMXVII
I’ve spent the week quietly grieving the death of
a treasured sister I didn’t know.
I worried we’d died before resolving the pain that
made us run from each other.
I don’t know how to manage my illness and the pain of this grief.
So tomorrow, I begin intensive outpatient treatment at Kaiser.
I’ll blog about the experience as my concentration returns.
To my friends on WordPress and other social media, thank you for
your words of support: I treasure them.
To Sandy’s loved ones on Facebook, In Richmond Virginia
and elsewhere I offer this slide show made from the handful of
selfies and faded snapshots gathered from her collection.
I will revise this video as I find higher resolution photos.
I set it to ‘Holiday’ by the Bee Gees.
It was one of her favorite songs.
Sandra Sarah Goldstein – Dunaway;
I miss you.
