This week we have one of my very good friends Lindy Parker Vega.
I met Lindy and her husband Javy through our church and immediately found that Kelly and I adored them. Lindy is a brilliant writer who loves books. Today Lindy has a job where she writes, read things, and talks about them…a perfect fit. Her and her husband Javy live with their son Kobe in Sayulita, Mexico and run a restaurant called Alquismista.
Lindy’s story is one of endurance, patience, gratitude, and slowness. When you read her writing you will find yourself immersed completely in the stories she tells. She describes her characters with personas which she takes on– characters that defy first impressions and easy definitions, characters who are funny and smart and unsure, characters who have the audacity to want things, characters who push walls that need to come down.
Lindy is an immensely wise person. Life has made her that way. Her intellectual formation is not easy to see at first or simple to define – just like the characters she wishes to construct. However, one conversation with her and you know you are in the presence of someone who understands life and knows it well. Lindy seems to extract the marrow out of every circumstance a confident person with durable joy.”
