She was one of those people who never stopped fighting, never stopped seeing, never stopped loving, never stopped giving, never stopped growing, even while everything inside of her was dying. She was like a mystical tree, boldly taking its stance in the middle of a bustling New York City. She made crowds of impatient people scurrying by to catch the next train to who-knows-where, stop, and take a second look. It's little things like that, like a mystical tree planted in the middle of a building world, that make life worth living. RIP.</p> Fri, 22 May 2009 15:57:44 -0700 2009-09-01T00:00:00-08:00 nobody@flickr.com (Alyssa L.
