Hey J.T.,
I’m getting a late start in life with the whole “finding myself” and social media scene, so your like and follow are greatly appreciated. I thoroughly enjoyed your WordPress site, and love the depth you’ve discovered in your music, writing and poetry. Your Father’s Day sentiments were fun and heartwarming. lt has been a day of remembrance for me as my father died when I was 20 and I never got to know him as an adult, and he never knew my kids, all of whom he would have loved. He was the Sci-Fi spark in my childhood, and left me an artistic and nature-loving legacy as well. Best wishes to you in all you do. Keep up the great work!
