Renaissance Woman

I have spent the past year of my life almost exclusively mourning my beloved baby brother, Jacob.

I have honored his life in the best way I know.

I have been living with ghosts and grief and sad memories of a broken little girl.

It is time to return to the land of the living.

It is time for a renaissance.

I can't wait to go back to school and remake myself anew.

But, no matter what, I will always love you, Jacob.

I will dedicate everything I write, everything I publish, everything I accomplish to your memory.

Jacob Michael Braasch (01/28/86 - 02/02/10)
