IF I COULD DRAW A MAP OF MY HEART IT WOULD GO SOMETHING LIKE THIS-
WHEN I WAS A BOY MY HEART WAS BIG AND FULL, FILLED WITH YOUTHFUL INNOCENCE AND OPTIMISM.
THEN ONE DAY I UNEXPECTEDLY DETOURED INTO A DARK AND DANGEROUS LANDSCAPE FILLED WITH OGRES, AND TROLLS.
IT SEEMED HARDER AND HARDER TO KEEP THE LIGHT SHINING AS I ENTERED INTO MY OWN HEART OF DARKNESS.
MY TRAVELING COMPANION DURING THIS TIME WAS A SMALL CROSS EYED TONKINESE CAT NAMED THIA.
SHE DIDN'T DEMAND A LOT, AND I HAD A SIXTH SENSE THAT SOMEHOW THIS TINY CREATURE WAS GENTLY HELPING ME TO KEEP A LIGHT BURNING IN MY HEART.
THEN ONE DAY, I MIRACULOUSLY CAME OUT OF THE DARKNESS,
AND MET ANOTHER TRAVELING COMPANION -
THE INCREDIBLE DENNIS WHO HELPED ME SALVAGE WHAT I FEARED I HAD LOST -
MY HOPES, MY HAPPINESS...
MY HEART.
