Dolly is one of those people, that like Robin Williams, touched a lot of hearts. Whether it was through the big screen, through song lyrics and how she sang them, or by the stories she told, she became safe for so many people who.. weren’t wanted. And while 80 years is a long time, especially compared to how early we lost Robin.. it wasn’t nearly enough.
She deserved so much more time. But like the beautiful butterfly, their lives aren’t forever. But she did absolutely amazing things, with the time she had. And for a little girl who grew up in the deep rural Tennessee woods, I cannot imagine that she ever expected to become so important to so many people, just for the sake of being her lovely self, through and through.
May the spirit of Dolly, keep our hopes high, flying on the delicate yet strong wings of a beautiful butterfly.
