ENCOURAGING PASSION
Michelle and Vanessa were introduced a few months before the pandemic hit and quickly developed a close relationship. Michelle describes Vanessa as kind, positive, and genuine. She also thinks Vanessa is a talented artist and has been encouraging her to pursue her passion.
To stay connected during social distancing, Michelle and Vanessa visited murals around Nashville. Michelle hoped taking Vanessa to see different murals would inspire Vanessa to paint her own mural one day because she knows she has it in her. When Michelle and Vanessa aren’t seeing local art around the city, they’re singing duets together, visiting state parks, and telling a joke a day to stay positive throughout the pandemic.
REACHING GOALS
Since Michelle came into Vanessa’s life, she feels less shy and is more comfortable opening up to new people.
“She has impacted me in my life. I always am shy around people I don’t know and feel very uncomfortable. I just don’t know what to say. Ever since I met Michelle, I feel very comfortable and I always know what to say next.”
MAKING DREAMS POSSIBLE
Michelle sees how talented Vanessa is in so many ways and is grateful Vanessa shared her talents with her. Vanessa hopes to make a career selling her art and knows Michelle will be there to help make her dream possible.
“I hope to be matched to Vanessa forever. This is not a temporary thing. It’s a real relationship.”
