46. PART 3 - DREAM'S END - VI - My name is Sofija …
Note that Progressed Moon is exact trine to my Natal Mercury – how cosmic, time to bring those memories to fruition; Progressed Mars is starting a conjunction with my Venus – how creative; Progressed Mercury is starting a conjunction with Jupiter and square to my Sun – ‘the computer is mightier than the pen’. Transit Jupiter is going over all my Leo crap. The last time it did this was when I thought of writing this – it takes Jupiter around twelve years to go through the signs. And of course, T. Saturn in Sagittarius will trine all my Leo planets this year – so there is a good result of perseverance. It takes Saturn about 28 years to go through the signs, so the last time was in 1986 – look to see how that year progressed in my story.
composite chart Terrell & completed edits
Holy cow look at those planets in the ninth house – successful publishing for sure though of course it is in trine with Neptune on the ascendant showing what an illusion it is that I actually believed anyone would read this. But if there was something to astrology then this composite using mid-points between my chart and when I competed yet another and probably last edit on 15 August 2015 could be read by more than my wife.
As of September 2025, no one else has read this. Thanks world.
Dear Terrell,
My name is Sofija …, I am an old friend of Leigh's from high school, [ I was the girl who gave you the flowers at his memorial], I want to take this opportunity to say what i tried so desperately to say to you that night, and due to circumstances wasn't physically able to do so.
Leigh was not only a brilliant sportsman, but he encompassed the true value of a human being, he was a kind, compassionate, intelligent and witty gentleman.
Leigh will be remembered by those who knew him at school as the ever so tall and lanky 'Yankee' who was forever late to class.
I want to also take this opportunity to tell you a few stories about him you mightn't have heard...
Leigh was the first person i met when i started high school, we met on orientation day, and we both started talking... which we never really stopped until we went our own ways after graduation...
Leigh and I had a deal going, his ambition was to become a world star baseballer, and mine has always been to be a Graphic Designer / Advertising agent... Our deal was simple he would be big, and give me my first big break.... I graduate from my course in a few months I’m pleased to say, however, I’m shattered to see he never lived up to his end of the deal.....
We used to sit together in the school yard [we had a wall where all the 'cool people' would sit from our year level] Leigh, Peter, Nick, Humphrey and I would sit just on the end of that group.
I remember asking him why he didn't sit with everyone else and he'd always say it was because everyone was so wrapped up in themselves, he just didn't want to associate with them.
As the years progressed and Leigh became more of a stunner, [all the year eight and nine girls use to love him], we would pretend to be dating so to make them leave him alone, which was very cute, cos those pore girls never really got the clue, but Leigh was too much of a gentleman to just say no... funny times.
I think of Leigh, and I remember all the political discussions we would sometimes have [see I’ve got Serbian background] ooh, they were great, we would always end up laughing and debating some element of a war which was going on.... your son was a good man!
The irony of him wearing a number 21 on his chain in school and never seeing it to a key...
There are soo many memories of him I won't forget, those bandanas, the screaming and the lateness combined with sheer delight and privilege to be able to have said I knew him, will live inside me till eternity....
Leigh lightened the lives of all those he encountered; he will be sorely missed...
I ask a small favour, i would like to know how i can obtain one of Leigh's baseball cards, this would be very important to me.... and if you wouldn't mind, could you tell me which cemetery he is buried in, I would like to pay my respects to him one day should I be in Sydney..
.
Terrell, it goes without saying, Leigh will live in those he knew and those who knew him forever... I thank you for bringing such a person into this world and I am privileged to have spent five years of my life in his presence......
God Bless,
Sofija … xoxo
