Wow,

"Thank you" feels too flimsy a phrase to circumscribe the enormous gratitude I feel--overflowing--for all of your contributions to my fundraiser.

As we careen through the holiday season towards the end of the year, I look back at the chain of friendship, ever lengthening, that my wending life construes, and I feel so grateful that I feel like I am imploding and exploding at the same time. This, I think, is love.

Thank you for your dollars, thank you for your warm and encouraging words, thank you for pushing me forward into this wonderful opportunity. More is coming, soon.

Love,

jean'
