How's The Family?

Two dates to note on this day, just because:

2002: Prince's mother died

2016: Denise Mathews died

Sorry, it's the Hodgkin's talking.

...and then Morris and the gang took off with a fat laugh...

Poor Denise, sweet woman but I don't think she was right in the head especially in the later years.

I don't know. I get she isn't academic, schoarly or not seen as brilliant but really are most ppl especially as they get older when viewed by others? I see someone who seems highly organized, clean, comfortable with self, and has a very positive outlook on life refusing to surrender to darkness. Given the sadness and the need to be rescued all over SM, I find her refreshing. I'm a bit envious and would love a bit more of her positivity. I guess I believe there's more than oe way to skin a cat so there's more than one way to live life. With her past she could be a totally different kind of person.
Time keeps on slipping into the future...


This moment is all there is...

I'm saying this based off interractions people have had with her. One minute she's praising Prince, the next one she goes on a rant against him. She strikes me as someone who was not mentally all there maybe Prince knew this too.

Eh, given what I've seen so far traumatized ppl are rarely ALL there, they tend to have a few quirks. I still respect she held herself together, sought out to live as positively as she could and fought to live. Definitely not a shallow person, that's definitely something that's deep within.
