So true! The more raw and vulnerable you are, the better the connection with your audience. I find that the more specific a writer is, the more general s/he, they are. We are so much more alike than different.
I so believe that the personality of our loved ones continues after the change we call death and that we live in the world of spirit. Your niece sounded like a wonderful person and I'm glad you got to say good-bye to her. This is a wonderful, touching story. Thank…
