Last year, I created a story featuring Sid and my sister’s child, Kim. They were born around the same time. Like many of my stories and the way I view life, they were celestial beings celebrating life on Earth during this current time. I imagined that they were connected before coming here. I also included myself in the story, as I was repeatedly visited by an image of a man with a beard and a bird on top of his head.

In many ways, the story feels biographical, as it draws from my own experiences and reflections, while also being deeply spiritual.
