artist, poet, student and above all a philosopher... living in bellingham, recently departed from seattle... living out adventures and enjoying life.
it would be wonderful to know you.
Who I'd like to meet: anyone with passion in their life...
I was at this small group meeting for my church last night (Unity..hippy new age church..heh) and we were talking about things that we loved and I just went on this random monologue about how much I loved that tree in Vancouver. You know, that one tree!!
i keep thinking about you. certain songs or flowers remind me of you. i'm a much happier person these days. and forever growing more optimistic. i've quit smoking, lost weight, gained a little bit of self esteem, and i might get to teach art without a GED this summer! you can smile knowing that you, in all of the years of simple encouragement, contributed to some of this. i dunno if you know it or not, but there are those of us who love you in our own special way. be proud of those you've inspired. i miss you. Jenni-Butt. (it's getting smaller!)
I miss you. What have you been up to lately? I have no one to go to Java Monkey with anymore and I feel like I'm growing up which is depressing. How's Seattle?
