Hold on to what is good even if it is a handful of earth.

Hold on to what you believe even if it is a tree which stands by itself.

Hold on to what you must do even if it is a long way from here.

Hold on to life even when it is easier letting go.

Hold on to my hand even when I have gone away from you.

Dear  friends,
I am so very sad. Adele was spirited, clear and beautiful - kicking ass in the right way, reminding me to stand up for kids' equity and make beauty available to them, saying kind supportive things to me even as she weakened. Without her, we have to become her, a little of her in each of us.

I am in St. John's - where I grew up - with my son. I hike, hang with the kids, and sometimes see old friends. I'm a bit of a hermit, however small talk is mandatory here.

I am thinking of you all.

love
Cass
