One Girl's Story (Trish)

Trish is an artist and a masterpiece. Like anyone in her craft, she has an affinity for black coffee and strange music. Her brown eyes and wit are disarming, but they come second only to her gift of quilting words to weave stories that warm the soul. If she were literature, she would be the most poignant of prose. She has the kind of openness and honesty which is a refreshing change in this world of pretense. Profound and funny, Trish could talk and laugh about almost anything, although she's also had her share of losses and rainy afternoons.

If there's one struggle in life that Trish hasn't figured out just yet, it's the internal tug-of-war between security and her joy. She is an undercover artist, for she hides under a pseudonym, corporate jacket, and black pantyhose. While she knew in her heart what she wants from life, she often gives in to what she thinks people want her to want from life. That's where she proves her humanity. Trish will one day do something that will shock and please her world. But that merits another story.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY, TRISH.
