You look around and you see everything has changed, everyone that Amber ever knew has gone their own ways, and that buzz of energy is gone from our lives. We all know that Amber was the glue that brought people together. She was always hosting, pulling together, or match-making. She saw in each person whose life she touched the one element that even remotely connected them.
That was then, this is now. The only person I knew whose phone was constantly in use, to which I could not add a single contact number because all 450 slots were used, and whose plan included nearly unlimited minutes, 1000 text, and 100 pix messages. Yeah, she nearly always maxxed that out, and still made room to read Erik a bedtime story, and sit and watch a quiet movie with me in front of the fire.
