Our first Mind Plier
On September 5, 2020, a tragic accident in Kansas City took the life of a man who was full of charisma, joy & love. A lot of that love was for my cousin, Michele. As Michele, friends & our extended family coped with that comet, several more impacted the clan. Michele advised another cousin that "if I fucking can, you fucking can!"
It was appropriate for the occasion. My sister said it needed to be a mantra we could use for many situations. We thought of a code & then I decided the format of "if-then" would work nicely. The "Coded Conversation" reads "If I Fucking Can (then) You Fucking Can"
The colors gold & red honor Michele & Michael's love of the Pittsburg State Gorillas & Kansas City Chiefs. Turquoise & purple are favorites of a bunch of family members.
If a conversation starts because of this "code", we can say to live fully; love, love, love; take the pictures; have the adventure; be an organ donor; swear if you need to & know that the person who is remembered never truly dies. |
