Rosemary Mote

Relentlessly kind

Always in my corner

Always had time

Made me feel valued and important

Gave me space to grow but was there to catch me if I miss judged

Yesterday I lost someone I loved but never told, someone who managed me, who mentored me, my colleague.


I am not sure what a path forward looks like without her in this world. I don't have steadfast honesty that I feel so confidant I can trust. I don't know if I can go, but I don't know if I can stay.

Our world is definitely a bit dimmer with her loss.

Her mother always said there was nothing that a fresh coat of lipstick wouldn't make better.  Lipstick did give me a moment of minute peace. I cant. I just feel sick
