It's not often you run across a 17 yr old young man with as much depth of emotion and insight as my son, Zak. It is my hope that you all will take just a moment out of your day to read his latest blog post and send a little bit of encouragement and light his way. It helps us all to know that we are no alone in this world, and that others can relate. Please click the link below to read and comment on his blog.
Thanks so much and have a FANTABULOUS weekend... ~*~The Queen~*~
I was just going through some of my older blog posts and found this. It couldn't have hit home more than now. I was feeling so empty on this night that the photo was taken (March 22, 2007), and decided to go and sit out on my deck with my camera.
As the sun was setting in the sky, it reminded me of a giant eye that could see all things...that knew all things...and suddenly I didn't feel so empty or alone anymore.
Somehow the video just goes with the whole blog...it did back then and it does now, as well. I hope that you will take a moment to listen to it and allow it to touch your heart the way it has touched mine.
Hi Rikki, thanks for always being so supportive and amazing!
I'm thinking of starting a Summer Reading Series in the East Bay and I want you to be a part of it. Good luck with your thesis!!! And let's talk soon. Love, Hollie
