Dear Javad....

Dear Javad,

Today marks two years since the day that changed our lives forever. Two years ago, while I was at school at African Family Night, I got a call from your older brother saying that you were unresponsive. My heart sunk because in the background, I heard your dad's voice and the panic was clear...something was very wrong. I told your brother to call 911 and I gathered my things and began the long drive home. I called home as soon as I was in the car, after calling Grami to go to our house to be there for support.

The story of the Phoenix is one that has been around for thousands of years. As the end of a thousand years, the Phoenix builds a funeral spire, throws itself on the fire and throws itself on the fire, only to be reborn. The Phoenix is the story of rebirth, changing the way that you might respond to another.

Tomorrow is the first "real" day of school. The rebirth will begin. As I walk into the ashes, knowing that there was a fire that was ravenous...destroying all in its way...I will see the Phoenix rising.   slowly making its way into the sky. Reborn whole and new. A new beginning, a new story to be written.
