reading of the will
today was the reading of Blair's will.
it was a very lengthy message from him. his words to me still send chills down my spine, hours later. i hope the chills never cease.
Brandon, I first want to quote one of your literary heroes. Hemingway said "Courage is grace under pressure". I never want you to forget that. I want you to keep those words with you at all times. I saved you for last because I want to make a very important point. You always put people first and this shall be the final time you are left to be last. You and I shared some of the most intimate of secrets. I knew you hearts desires you knew mine. I don't think there is anyone else in this universe that would know what to do with me. That being said, I am placing the burden of my remains on you. I think you are the only person who will know the right time and the right place. I believe in you my friend, not just with this task, but in life. You are a truly gifted person in your abilities and your soul. Never let your words cease. Lastly, do not edit yourself in life. Be you, not what anyone else wants you to be. You've put on so many faces to appease your audience. Your life no longer needs to be a work of fiction it needs to be a dramatic and compelling biography.
so that was my part.
my mind is blown.
