PLEASE READ: Please, I ask that any comments made under this picture be made with respect because the fur featured in the picture in one whose has passed. It's important to me that people not say anything hurtful/ demeaning that could hurt those still morning her or missing her.
This is a picture that I've been meaning to do for a good deal of time but I felt for a long time I wasn't in the proper mind set to create it. Recently I've been in a very emotional place both in life and in my art, when I sat down tonight to try to release some of that emotion this is where the pen took me.
Emberlyn wasn't a close friend but my limited interaction with her really made an impression on me. As a watcher I would get supportive comments on pieces that were always very spirited and fun. As a friend on Live Journal she would always speak and offer herself when I'd express I was feeling stressed.
When I think of her I begin to think of how important it is over the internet to still try to always be at my best because there's a chance that will be the only way some people might know me. Not just because human beings are in a constant state of frail existence. Rather, that she was such an impressive example of cheer, love and for her it seemed not being face to face made no difference in how she treated people.
I like to think that the spirits around us interact with the world and water has always been the center point of change, growth and life. When I was younger and I'd feel a light sprinkle of rain I'd always think the angels in the clouds were messing with me - just letting me know they were there are work. No matter how bad things were they would change because new life would always be brought to the earth.
That's why I drew this picture the way I did.
In closing: Emberlyn, I didn't ever get the chance to know you, it's no ones fault, it just wasn't something that ever happened. The day you stopped commenting, I noticed though, and not even knowing your real name, the color of your eyes or the sound of your voice your memory moves me to tears. Thank you for the small way you touched my life when our lives dusted each other in passing.
Rest in peace and drop a bit of rain down us now and then to let us know you're there - that would be appreciated.
