I'm sorry, Consuela. Much peace to you and your family.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.
I'm so sorry, Consuela.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
It sucks. Dad's a great human being, a role model for an honest and ethical life, and we will all miss him. But I also don't feel like we got cheated out of time with him. And he's not in pain, not upset, not afraid or angry. It could be so much worse.
That sounds like a good place to be in, all things considered. Thinking of you all.

Holding you and your family in my heart, Consuela.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.
My condolences, Consuela.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
I'm so sorry, Suela.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
At church the other day, I saw a woman whose husband died this year was having a hard time, so I went to go say something to her, and she was like, "this time of year must be hard for you, too...." and literally all I could come up with was "time passes." Couldn't bring myself to say things get better, or easier, with time, but it does keep going.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
It is both the best and the worst that time keeps passing no matter what.
