Happy. Contented from the inside out with anxious joy that lingers from your finger tips to your toes. I have spent the last two months and a little bit more with the most creatively beautiful people I have ever met. Talented yes, but each and every one of their hearts is full of much more than that. Our cheeks have been painted the perfect shade of pink and our lips have been defined with a hint of fuchsia. Bow ties are perfectly fitted around the necks of dreamy leading men and their hands are there to twirl us right and then left at the precise moment. Costumes are ready, dress up has been played. The lights are burning and although the house is still empty, the air still contains it's spark. Music plays from the space below it's 5,6,7,8 lets go. Places have been called and will be called again as the lights go dim and your heart begins to race. Soon there will be applause, loud and thunderous to say the least and every moment placed on the stage will never be forgotten. In this place and in this time, nerves set in and release butterflies into your soul. Warm faces touched by a whisper of the spotlight calm you down and you quickly realize you are sharing the stage and this entire experience with people you absolutely adore and love. Thank you all for being exactly as you are, old and new were a family that I know I will never live without. For your handprints have touched my heart forever and there it will stay.
Always,
Niki
