A faceted gem, that essay. Most loving and grateful thoughts to you this season and always, Autumn. You are a gift to the world and to my life. "Miss Maureen"

What a wonderful essay to finish up 2023. Really enjoyed reading this. And the Joni Mitchell at the end... perfection. That’s going on my current Spotify playlist. Looking forward to more from you in the new year. Happy holidays!

Another thought-provoking and moving piece, Autumn. It sounds as if you loved your mom very much and I bet your love nourished her and warmed her heart. There are so many kinds of love to experience in the world and though romantic love often steals all the media attention, I think family love, friend love, and pet love can also bring great comfort and happiness. Wishing you a happy and restful holiday and look forward to reading more of your words in 2024. Thanks for the Joni Mitchell tune. Love her.
