Death Becomes Her

Well damn.
That movie, years ago… with those two women, who were they again?.. oh, right, Goldie Hawn and Meryl Streep. The title never really made sense to me..
’til now.
Leave it to you to clarify something from my past. Leave it to you to make death seem easy and beautiful, and like a most magical place, the beauty and song you brought to the lives we live. You made life beautiful, and why not continue it to the beyond? It’s who you are. Your utterance of “I can’t believe this is happening” is one that will remain with me always, because who could believe what was happening?…
I was told by someone much wiser than I that “death is the most intimate thing you can ever experience with someone.”
Really wish I didn’t have to learn that.
Instead of the lame speech I gave when I was unexpectedly called on to give about our experience in diving the sky towards the Earth as mortals, I would much rather have spoken about your electrifying and immortal soul, your amazingingly captivating spirit, your ability to make anyone shine; your true beauty.. the beauty you showed us (yet again) after you left us.
You captivated us even after death..
..who does that?..
You.
This is a tribute to one of the most amazing women I have ever known, a true inspiration to live as if you are dying and to relish every moment and make the most of what we are given here in what we may consider the “be all end all.”
Maybe that end smile was your way of telling us not to take life so seriously? We love you, and miss the shit out of you.
Infinite thanks to Moffitt Cancer Center in Tampa, FL and the amazingly loving JCPenney work family for allowing me the years I had with this amazing girl.
Oh Balls.

Urban Dictionary is fun, and perhaps at times even true. If the definition of my name holds true, I can only assume others do as well. What’s yours?

If that’s not irony, I don’t know what is!

Waiter, there’s uh.. something in my bowl.

It’s been a little while since I’ve put up an entry (apologies!) and a lot going on that I could blog about… and out of it, this is what stood out to me. Amazingly creative and fascinating to watch! Enjoy:
DO Date a Girl Who Travels

Always a lone traveler at heart, this is a great post defining and explaining a woman who loves to travel. Thank you.
Recently a blog post went viral, translated into 16 different languages the post was called, Don’t Date a Girl who Travels. Wonderfully written and accurate in the description of an independent woman who can’t be tied down, a woman meant to explore, a woman who should not be held back.
I read this post and smiled, recognizing many of the values identified as ones that I have discovered in my own life of travels. It’s tone empowering, fierce, a life lived unconventionally, a women wisely choosing to follow her own will, not that of someone else’s.
Yet I couldn’t help questioning; Why not chase life right along with her? Why has an article celebrating a passionate woman ended with a proclamation to let her go? Why is confidence and daring curiosity in women so often paired with solitude?
So, here goes my response…
Do date a woman who travels.
