I'm not sure where to begin but I do want to write something.
Do I try to unravel my own confusion and shock into a stream of words?
Do I attempt to construct my own fitting eulogy of David and what he meant to me, to my work and to my very identity?
I used to describe the days I spent with David as being put through extreme brain yoga. My mind was stretched in ways that it previously would never have thought possible. Neurological pathways were traced at odd angles, and the belief systems upon which I had formerly hung my life, were challenged and reconstructed from their core.
David rocked my world.
He shook me to my foundations and challenged every aspect of who I was and how I worked with others, yet always with love and guidance. He helped me grow into the woman I am - showed me how to be brave, to be strong, to believe in myself. He taught me to travel deeply though the human psyche. He taught me how to live and how to die.
He was a compelling, charismatic, powerful healer, and one who constantly articulated many half-glimpsed truths for me. I feel truly blessed to have been his apprentice, companion and friend.
He has now gone back from whence he came.
Bon Voyage!
