My California are stories from life. Beth’s life. ”Sister Heroine” is about the loss of her sister, Sharon. About being gathered as a family and feeling guilty over talking about the good old days, when someone is missing, even having guilt over feeling joy or laughing. ‘Like You and Everyone Else’ is about the struggle in dealing with life when the brain’s chemical balances keep sending you from one extreme to the next. It’s about wishing to be like everyone else, about belonging and in the end coming to terms with the fact that everyone is different somewhere in their lives.
