My submission to @cindymorganzine for a tribute to the late great Cindy Morgan

It comes from a few different inspirations:

For a while I've been playfully using "YoLo" to refer to the characters of Yori and Lora.

YOLO stands for "you only live once." For a long time, I've had some thoughts about how that's more compelling as a reason to cherish and protect life than a reason to be reckless with it.

But I think Yori and Lora both embody something near the ideal balance of the two interpretations: the perfect blend of adventure and care.

The passing of Cindy Morgan, whose brilliant acting brought both those characters to life, has deepened these thoughts for me.

It's brought some focus onto the value of life, and the endeavor of giving it the proper respect and caution, while also making the most of it while it's here.
