A friend posted a picture of a white horse flying over a beautiful rainbow. After telling him I liked it, he suggested perhaps it would give me inspiration to paint.

I recall spending that time telling my ex-daughter-in-law all about Dan and the journey I was on and the stories he shared with me. We played Dan's music during the 5 hour trip to the ocean and the 5 hour trip back to her home. She was deeply in pain. The best word I can use to describe what she was doing is "purging". Ridding herself of hidden pain/hidden emotions - which is what I was also doing with Dan.About Me
