“As long as you have life and breath, believe. Believe for those who cannot. Believe even if you have stopped believing. Believe for the sake of the dead, for love, to keep your heart beating, believe. Never give up, never despair, let no mystery confound you into the conclusion that mystery cannot be yours.” ~ Mark Helprin
I had the best day with my first cousin, Melissa Wilson Moore. She’s catering mom and dad’s anniversary party, so out on a beautiful Saturday we went for vittles and decorations. I don’t think just the two of us have done anything together in 30 years. We’re always with family, which isn’t a bad thing, but it does limit one on the more personal connections. Being one of the oldest of the Terry grandchildren, I remember when many of my cousins were born. I remember when Missy was born. She was always my closest cousin. Today was a rare blessing.
