"we put our glass to the sky and lift up
and live tonight ‘cause you can’t take it with ya
so raise a pint for the people that ain’t with us
and live tonight ‘cause you can’t take it with ya"
-Mackelmore
Lesson of the week: there are no guarantees. The veil separating our life from the inanimate is thin. I feel shock and sadness. We are guaranteed nothing. We are owed nothing. We can only live in great appreciation for what we have and who we love.
I appreciate that I knew Guy, that he was a part of my life, if but for a short while. His life of kindness, community and love is an example for all of us . What an inspiring leader and friend. I appreciate how he welcomed me to New-Unity. He had a knack for making one feel appreciated and valuable/valued. I will miss him. I send my love and sorrow to his partner and family.
