I am not ready to be on the spotlight

On my last post I shared with you some strange day I was having. That bittersweet day when things get on well but all of a sudden you realise you are not ready for all of it.

So this one, it is in fact that moment that I have been fearing the most. The reality hitting me directly on my face.

Things were going OK. I started being part of the Buffyverse, Whedonverse etc. So the start is like you have this group where people will share thoughts, moments and comments on our favourite shows but you have no-one else to talk about this stuff. Tara, Willow, Buffy, Dawn, Kennedy, Spike -oh Spike!- etc. 

You are getting to know all this people in there...

And then someone posted a beautiful collage of photos of Lorne and Andy. People commenting: R.I.P., I miss him, Oh I didnt know he passed away, Loved him etc

I couldn't help but comment on it on present tense. Because it is all present tense for me. For all those that had the enormous chance and fortune to meet/know him back in the day, it's all past, just the memory lives on forever as a present tense.

I can't imagined how hard was for Andy's family, fans, friends and people that knew him and discovered his soul and grace.  But for me it's double hard, not comparing at all, but you have to face this awesome man is gone forever while you live your present but trying to make up your mind that despite you see him and what you feel, that has to be over soon because it ain't real.

And then here comes me, with an extraordinary imagination, trying to convince myself this is some kind of wrong but right thing at the same time. Some kind of weird and awesome thing (I think).

And Angel will show up in reruns in the future and people, other people, will discover Lorne and will be touched by Andy's sould and heart. And everything will start again.

So after all, I am not ready just yet to post this public everywhere. I am not ready to the Whedonverse know about what has just happened in my life.... and how that changed my life.

And how much I want my life to be this way (despite it means to live in the past forever)...

*Sigh*

So after all, there's only one thing left to say... :

Merry Christmas to ya'll

My Tribute, My Therapy

I can't believe it's been a year since all started for me. A year ago I remember I was watching Season 3 of Angel for the first time. Since then, there has not been a day I haven't watched an episode of Angel. I still can't get enough of all of it. All this year has been a wonderful year of discovering an amazing person and incredibly talented man.That man that I discovered a year ago. A year ago when I started this blog and tribute page was almost my birthday. Happy Birthday to me, must have said life. Let me introduce you to someone that will change your life forever. How on time, you damned! Along this year I have cried so many times, I have laugh so hard, I have dreamed so high,I have hoped and done so many things. My mind has always been a beehive of ideas and projects: some have come real and some others are waiting the right moment to see the light. I have met some nice people. I have dreamed sometimes about Andy. Some maybe because I made it h...

The (perfect) portrait of Andy.

I'm not the kind of girl to moan about things, I'm not even keen to repeat one things or give lectures about anything. In this corner of mine I consider to go back in time and explain why I do the things I do. Let my heart speak, let those little unresolved things in me out and also thank the Lord and Universe I have come this far and reached this point. One of the most amazing things ever in all this time is when I randomly get the chance to know one of those stories that are now part of the insights of all the cons Andy attended. Those that have become legend. Some of which I have seen some photos of.  And then, I wish I could have been there. All those memories you are so kind to share are now part of me and help me to have a fair view of who Andy was . You know, it's something like whe you are doing a puzzle and you are trying to put together all the pieces and with each one of them it's little part of Andy that you fill in to build the perfect -if that can...
