Our sweet princess has drowned in moonlight, strangled by her own bra...
"Remember the white dress I wore all through that film? George came up to me the first day of filming, took one look at the dress and said: 'You can't wear a bra under that dress.'
'OK, I'll bite,' I said. 'Why?' And he said: 'Because ... there's no underwear in space.'
He said it with such conviction. Like he had been to space and looked around and he didn't see any bras or panties anywhere.
He explained. 'You go into space and you become weightless. Then your body expands but your bra doesn't, so you get strangled by your own underwear.'
I think that this would make for a fantastic obituary. I tell my younger friends that no matter how I go, I want it reported that I drowned in moonlight, strangled by my own bra."
Carrie Fisher, in flight to Los Angeles, fifteen minutes before touching down, had suffered a cardiac arrest.
She received CPR on the plane, but when paramedics got to her once the plane had landed, it took them fifteen minutes more to get a pulse.
Once in the hospital ICU, things were starting to look hopeful, and shortly thereafter, her brother had reported her condition to the rest of the hopeful world as being stable... but then, on December 27th, 2016, no matter how tight all of our love could grasp, she suddenly slipped through this world's fingers.
Her Living Force has left us all to join with the Universal Force.
Carrie Fisher was a heroic force of her very own.
Her portrayal of her most famous, most constructively influential role, has served - and shall ever serve - as a source of inspiration to countless people, to myself, and to my daughter.
She showed men and boys that women and girls needn't turn masculine to outperform them in courage, tenacity, leadership, stamina and strength of spirit, and she showed women and girls the same.
Deed Doer.
Princess.
War General.
In the eyes of many, Lady Knight.
And let's not forget, in Heart of Hearts, Jedi.
This Good Human Being portrayed many roles, yes... but it cannot be argued that her role in the Star Wars mythos was the most well known, well portrayed, well received, inspiring, influential, constructive, on many levels even emulated in the hearts of youthful beings everywhere, and yes, very, very dearly loved.
Fare thee well, Lady Carrie Fisher...
Fare thee well, sweet Princess Leia...
We shall forever keep you in our hearts, being warmed by the Force you've emanated into our lives' growth and vitality.
I hope you know how much we all have loved you so, and shall ever love you still...
...thank you, so very, very much...
...and may the Force be with you, always <3 ;_; <3
