Another twist of college is that tragic, unfortunate, unexpected things happen while you are away and you can’t always go home to be with those who will comfort you. This past Monday, October 19th, my friend Tracy Fisher passed away. I was shocked and could not believe it was true. Tracy and I were in girl scouts together as kids. I remember that she was always so bright and happy. When she smiled, you just wanted to smile too because she had such a big beautiful smile.

Tracy, I miss you and I love you an incomprehensible amount. And now… as her brother instructed us.. it’s time to live. Because we are alive. Because even “death cannot stop true love.”
