Keep being your authentically quirky, talented, honest, and light-bringing self.

The world needs more people like you Tyler.

More people who aren't afraid to say the things that they truly feel and who don't hold back. Imagine how much better the world would be if we all dropped the masks and just WERE. You know?

Lastly, happy birthday to your BFF, Anna. She sounds like a lovely human being.

It is your open-heartedness in your poetry, and writing, that drew me to you so long ago in the first place. There's always been a gasp in me concerning your writing and a feeling of endearment when I see you.

There is nothing wrong with you, Tyler. I read a theory somewhere that neurodivergence may be an evolutionary trait. What the world needs in order to survive. Certainly, my family has it. Certain friends of mine as well ... and all are gems. Just like you.

I love the authentic person. I hate the bullshit. I want to ask the questions that get us to a point behind the trivial. Let’s fast-track what could be a wonderful friendship (or not).

I appreciate your authenticity and your lack of bullshit. I never have to wonder, “Is this true or embellished? You do you and I will continue to respect and enjoy!

I really do think the world would be a better if we could all be a little more honest. It’s strange how often someone will tell you what they think you want to hear when the truth would cause a lot less heartache.
