Happy birthday jakebe!

jakebe is an extraordinary poet and friend. Knowing he's in the world makes me smile and gives me faith that yeah, this world really is a pretty good place. He's someone I trust unequivocally - honest and dependable (yet a bit flaky in all of the best ways). We both have some of the same struggles, and I aspire to handle life with the same mindfulness and grace and awareness that he does.

Thank you so much for being my friend. ♥
