Your piece is a testament to Los Angeles as canvas painted with so many rich lives and experiences as few other cities are. We lose more than buildings in the fire. We lose those visual markers that evoke millions of memories - and in losing that we lose the essence of the city - its history as defined by those who strode its streets.

Such an interesting and gorgeous moment... when we're able to tap into our own "beginingness" and breathe again after big grief.

A mighty rich stew, this piece!
