"What lies behind us, and what lies ahead of us, are tiny matters compared to what lies within us." Ralph Waldo Emerson

What happens when you look in the mirror when you have a day that is such a day that you can't move past it? Then there are those moments you cling to, through slippery child-like fingers, in childhood and long after, that you don't ever want to move past.

This is a book of my moments, on my walk, from when I was a teenager through something I laughingly refer to as adulthood. Like memories, some are exactly as they were- word for word- the day they were put to paper 20 years ago. Like dreams, some of them have been shaped into watercolors, through the reflection of a mirror, or tears. I choose to share them in the hope that we can laugh and cry and enjoy them together.
