Inspired by Gillian, a character in Frederick Buechner's novel "Godric".

I wrote this song about my grandmother Barbara, after she passed away on her 79th birthday. Writing the song helped me to process some grief and doubt and questions, as well as to honor her memory. My hope is that the song resonates with other people's experiences of moving through grief, and can serve as a consolation.

This song is one of the first songs I learned how to play on the ukulele. It's featured on the soundtrack of my favorite movie "10 Things I Hate About You" and it is a song that deeply inspired my early songwriting.
