The photos posted last night are of my sister in her lovely prom dress. I am so proud of her! My sister just got admitted to the University of NC School for the Arts in film making. This was her absolute dream, and I am so proud that she accomplished so much! I still see that little mini badass chickadee in our little garden at our first house when I look at her, but my how she has grown up. She stands by me to support me every single day, especially on the bad days, and often is the only person I feel I can really trust to understand what I'm going through. Seeing her in this moment on prom day was one of the most amazing moments in my life. Prom is special. Now, despite the theory of it as mainly first-world consumption that disregards all the many problems of the world, prom is magical. Prom does just that, it sets aside all the issues of the world for one magical night--just a few simple hours of celebration. Prom celebrates beauty, something humans are internally, eternally attracted to. But this girl, here in the pictures, is ridiculously special. Principally beautiful to the fibers of her heart. Though we have our really bad days, and even mildly bad days, we have to remember the beauty in the everyday. Every day, every action of life should be a celebration like prom, a celebration of beauty and love for life. I love you, Josephine, shine on.
