30
Today marks what would of been the 30th birthday of my dear friend Adrian Feir, who passed away January 6, 2000. Every time her birthday or death anniversary comes around, it serves as a reminder of where my work started. If you haven't heard the story yet -- my best friend passed away from Lymphoma Cancer. Before she passed away, Make-A-Wish Foundation granted her a wish to go to Australia. And after her passing I thought to myself, wouldn't it be great to do something for Make-A-Wish Foundation? I put together a benefit show for them in memory of my friend. I had no idea that one event would change my life direction and career.
It's been almost ten years -- and today a boomerang from Adrian's trip to Australia and a framed children's drawing of Australia from Make-A-Wish Foundation preciously hang on my wall.
In those moments where I can't seem to understand why I've been put in this place, just seeing that on my wall reminds me --- that I can only embrace the unexpected.
What's next? I have no idea.
