Dear @samsmith1971, I know your heart. Plus, you told me already. I am most gratified that you see the total expression here. My piece is visceral and intellectual. Both parts spoke to you. Thank you for

Thank you, @litguru for reading. There are chapters closing in my life and I'm coming to terms with each of them. Talking about it doesn't work for me. Writing does. I loved my brother deeply. I hope he

as I get older, I tend to forget things Tell me about it.😄 That is very generous of you, @seckorama. We have all made that mistake at some time.

Hello dear @jayna, This is my story, the story of my brother and our shared history. I just told what happened, straight and as it came from my heart. At some point we have to put things to rest, but how?

Thank you! My brother always held fast to the idea of family, of our family. He was the oldest, and was like a rock for all of us when we were adults. Your kind sentiments and empathy are part of the healing

Thank you for these! Oldies for sure, but all familiar to me. I don't know the last singer, but Perry Como and Louis Prima are very familiar to me. The two men couldn't be more different (not that this

So nice to see you here, @doriangel. What a fun concept. I love your bison. LMAC is gifting you 1 HSBI token in appreciation of your art and your participation in the contest. Good luck!

Thank you @curangel and @jotakrevs. For your acknowledgement. It is much appreciated.

Hello @deraaa, Thank you for those words. My brother was rushed to the hospital in 1955. That's a long, long time ago. Memory of many events from those years have faded, but this was so dramatic that it
