Your creativity. Your enthusiasm. The way you can bring profanity to bear on a situation that deserves it. Your generosity of spirit and wanting to think the best of people. The way you examine your worldview when you get new information. (I am still very something at a person who would have called that a character flaw and lack of consistency.) The way you decided that you would be a person who wrote fanfiction and then threw yourself into doing just that. Your taste in fine links. The way you use your position to help get everyone a seat at the table. Your dedication to letting teenagers be teenagers and express themselves in questionable words and explorative art. The way you do the thing even while you complain about the necessity. Your courage in dealing with all of 2016 and 2017. The way you let others help you when you needed it. Your capacity for silliness. Your devotion and kindness as a mentor. Your love for things that go mew in the night. The glee you take in snow, even though I don't understand it.

The incredible beauty when you light up smiling.
