brightrosefoxI found words for this, and Misha said it better than I could:
"Dirk saw the beauty, sparkle, joy in every person. He saw what made that person unique and helped them bring it out. When you met him you knew you were in the presence of someone special. I have been thinking of how he would want me to remember him. I was a teenager when I first met him and was still growing when i last saw him. I think the legacy that he left behind for me was the ability to see the best in people. To accept everyone for who they were and appreciate them for their uniqueness. He flowed through groups and people like water because he respected them all. I will remember Dirk by asking myself what he would do in this situation. Yeah that's right WWDD? Corny I know but it brings ease to my heart. Like I will be able to pay his love forward to people who did not know him.
I can remember Dirk by appreciating everyone who is in my life. By respecting their differences and celebrating their successes with them. I can keep him in my heart by following my passions and living for tomorrow. By respecting myself and presenting myself as a person is understanding, respectful, and fun I can keep my memory of Dirk alive. He was a wonderful man who will be missed terribly."
Thanks, Misha.
