The Pursuer

It is very bittersweet to see the smiling face of my dearest brother/uncle/friend after so many years. Chris died 25 years ago. It broke me. The effects are still with me today. This video is so much more then a college film my mother made over 40 years ago. It is my past and loves long gone. That of my city I had to bid farewell to due to medical complications of family and caregiving for family members, and also to two men I loved so very much. One was my uncle Henry who was a protector to me and the 1st real male who cared for me, and 2nd my beautiful soul Chris who left way too soon. I still want to share with him so much that I cannot. Instead I will edit and post my mothers films, work on the book I've been compliling for the past year, and listen to music that touches my soul.

THE GAME

Another of my mother's 16mm films she made while at Columbia. Enjoy!

Fall always reminds me of my Grandma and my love for her. Happy November from both Rainie's.

Boozing Barbie

Another film my mother made while at Columbia College 1979 in Chicago.

The Walk

Happy Trails Mr. Positive

I recently found out that Mark passed away this past spring. Occasionaly we'd message one another over the past 10 years. It was heart warming to know that, despite the way we were raised, he managed to not only keep his sense of humor, but also a possitive outlook in life. He was featured in one of the films my mother made while at Columbia. Here is Mr Positive, the early years in "The Walk"

Ten and a Half Years

I can't beleive it has really been that long since I've posted. It seems like a blink of an eye yet my universe has completely changed. Loss of those held dearest and gaining the long forgotten dearest souls. Happiness has changed meanings as time marches on. Age provides a better focus of what is worth attention and emotions. I'll try not to let another decade pass without a post. I've missed it.
