Good luck is king, but patience is always rewarded. From Toronto to Vancouver, In pre-board process I was fortunate to strike up a cryptic conversation with Charlotte, a.k.a Madame E'jem about why I have no Canadian accent? Her dialog direct and assertive while intertwined with vague references of her past life experiences of travel, wandering to find her "lure destiny". I humbly resisted interjecting my questions or participating in insight so I patiently waited in the background for her verbal narrative pause.... after much attentiveness, non came. Madison works the ink business, boasting proudly as she declared her ancestral Moore came to her in a midnight gathering to guide her future, quietly yet directly I ask permission and captured a single image. Silence followed.
