work in progress.


My grandma’s time with us is over, and she has finally arrived safely at her home. These past few weeks with her have, not only been a blessing, but very emotionally and spiritually rewarding. I have been able to talk to her about many topics including politics, love, and most importantly my mother. She has helped me visualize a future project, one I want to dedicate to my mom and all of her work. But it still remains in my imaginary – maybe to be talked about later.

The youngest cousin in Mexico answered the phone when I called a few minutes ago.  This had me thinking, about what her life is like right now. I’ve seen it happen before—everyone gathers around the costales full of someone else’s clothes. To them, it is like Christmas, to us it is charity.
