A Quiet, Short Goodbye

...For now...

In the meantime, I'm experimenting with two projects.

News Anchor Talks about Brain Tumor

I just watched this thanks to a friend on Facebook. It really touched me. I don't know if it's because I am far away from my family, living out our decision that allows me to pursue my career...or something else.

I do find myself thinking that my face defines me. Or that my job defines me. What really defines me? My family. And, so... tonight, I'd rather be in a blizzard then at a beach. But... tomorrow is another day.

The anchor I'm talking about is Kathi Goertzen. She is at KOMO in Seattle, and her aggressive brain tumor has made some visible changes to her appearance. She seems so poised, and I really enjoyed listening to her. My dad had a brain tumor a few years ago, and it was life changing for our family. That's another story.

Well, watch... listen...and learn. Also, I love the way the reporter wrote a poem for her in his track. I think it's beautiful.
