I
TAKE
COMFORT
IN
YOU
7wk
little
comfort
in
this
world.
I
have
felt
an
uneasiness
in
the
presence
of
other
people
since
my
earliest
recollections.
It
is
a
type
of
uneasiness
that
would
seem
to
come
from
estrangement
from
society,
yet
I
have
felt
it
all
my
life.
However,
there
are
exceptions
to
every
rule,
and
such
is
the
case
for
me
as
well.
I
have
been
truly
blessed
in
my
short
lifetime
to
have
come
in
contact
with
some
extraordinary
people.
People
who
possess
an
infectious
spinty,
and
an
insatiable
hunger
for
life.
People
that
I
am
almost
at
once
comfortable
with.
Mike
Reid,
was
such
a
person.
His
gentle
and
unassuming
ways
bread
a
kind
of
familiarity,
I
find
rare
and
precocity;
that
I
as
drawn
towards.
These
special
people
I
have
given
the
title
of
"Master"
As
only
masters
can
touch
lightly,
indelibly,
and
sow
the
seeds
of
their
passion
in
the
hearts
of
others.
In
my
short
time
with
Mike
he
taught
me
some
valuable
lessons
that
I
shall
not
soon
forget;
he
gave
me
the
gift
of
another
perspective.
In
Mike
's
passing
I
have
found
a
new
resurgence
of
purpose,
and
am
reminded
that
my
presence
on
earth
does
not
have
to
be
profound
to
be
purposeful.
That
every
day
I
should
strive
to
do
the
best
that
I
can
do,
and
make
a
positive
difference
in
the
little
ways
that
I
can.
The
loss
of
Mike
diminishes
my
notion
of
humanity,
but
his
contribution
will
live
on
as
long
as
my
memory
does.
My
memories
of
Mike
give
me
comfort
and
hope
and
I
will
not
soon
forget...
See
you
on
the
other
side
Mike.

Until
a
few
months
ago,
kidney
dialysis
was
Her
only
chance.
But
then
a
kidney
donor
was
found-
Discuss
organ
donation
with
your
family
and

card

If
enough
people
do,
we
can
give
others
like
Michelle
a
second
chance.
