    Author Notes:

    Chapter 128 – Alice’s Article

     

    As all
    good fairy tales this story starts with sadness, in this case a death.  Ms. Porter’s father died.  Melvin Porter had been the foundation that
    Bette built her life.  He was the person whom
    Bette spent her life trying to impress and make happy.  His option was law and his edicts became her
    missions.  In his will he put a
    complication, a burden on Bette’s life. 
    He wanted her to create an entity that would provide opportunities for
    those who could not provide it for themselves. 
    This was an open-ended request which he funded to the tune of $50
    million.  A request that could have been
    fulfilled in many ways.  Personally if I
    had been shouldered with such a responsibility I would have chose something
    that I was familiar with.  In Bette’s
    case, her life is art, I could envision her setting up a scholarship program to
    encourage up and coming artists.  Surely
    she had witnessed enough deserving starving artists in her years in the art
    field. 

     

    But no Ms.
    Porter took an unexpected route.  She
    created an entity which today is successful, well thought of and could prove to
    be one of the most influential Foundations with respect to helping people build
    constructive lives of value.  Bette
    thought up and created the Motif Yen Valor Foundation.  This foundation is dedicated to the
    development of opportunities for the broken and under privilege. 

     

    This is so
    far away from the life that Bette has known, how would she have known what was
    needed or even required?  Where did this
    idea even come from?  With a little
    investigative work I think I was able to come up with a plausible explanation
    that makes sense but also warms the soul and encourages the heart.  But first some background is required. 

     

    Bette
    Porter had been committed to her life partner for seven years.  For reasons that aren’t important here, they
    have ended their relationship.  The
    ending, as all endings are, was hard, gut wrenching and unexpected.  Bette took this ending to heart as a failure
    in her personality.  Something was
    lacking in her that she needed to correct. 
    The Bette Porter that had fashioned herself to meet her father’s
    expectations couldn’t meet the expectations of herself. 

     

    Her
    partner of many years has a passion for helping and is very good at it.  She has a large heart that is well suited for
    the mission of the Motif Yen Valor Foundation. 
    Could this ending of Bette’s personal relationship be the seed for the
    creation of the MYV Foundation?  Bette’s
    need to give back to the partner she failed. 
    The drive that drove her to create something that mirrors her partner’s
    soul as a way of express her understanding and desire for the heart that she
    broke.  To fulfill her partners wishes
    even if it is done anonymously?  I think
    it is.  I think that Bette wanted to give
    back to the world something that was dear to her partner’s world.  Something that would have meaning and value
    to people beyond herself, this was the reason for going above and beyond her
    father’s vision and into her own vision.

    4. It’s great to have the talent to write dialog between people, but to have the talent to write what you wrote in this chapter. WOW! Please keep writing.

    7. OMG JWET…..how do you do it? What an exceptional piece of writing…(on bended knees I bow to the master!). Oh where in the hell is the Kleenex box! THANK YOU FOR THE SPECIAL TREAT OF THIS SURPRISE POSTING!

    8. HOLY FUCKING COW! You have surpassed yourself mate!!! How on earth are we gonna see SHSL there now! I wasn’t sure pedestals go this high, but mate you just made another huge leap, I say we pop on her top of the Empire State for all to see! Great job Alice!!!

    14. Did I mentioned that Alice was going to be a hero in this story? *sniff*sniff*. The words “wow, beautiful, awesome” says it all. The article was not sappy at all. No wonder Tina changed her mind; very well articulated and just plain wonderful. Thanks, Jwet. Thank you for such a heartwarming post.

    15. What absolutely wonderful writing, Jwet!! What a beautiful piece of article that sings the praise of one Bette Porter?! Alice will make everyone fall in love with Bette’s self sacrifice to create something that gives hope and second chances, and most importantly, with Bette herself. And that will include Child Services and the judge who will be rule on the restraining order on Helena…LOL. Now I know how touched Tina felt after reading this article. And I must say again that Alice is really up for an award after her these 2 articles and, of course, the up and coming article on Helena’s evil deeds. I’m really looking forward to the reactions to Alice’s article.

    19. All caught up and feedback to provide. Wonderful article…so poignant and touching. Your ability to provoke emotions is simply admirable. A rare talent indeed. Great chapter, great story…just great.

    20. Well, well Alice…talk about pulling out all of the stops. That was a keenly articulated indeminty that should help build a better case for Bette’s adoption of Anna.I only hope that Helena doesn’t extrapolate the only negative comment about Bette being nasty when provoked to use as her weapon. Excellent, Jwet…as always.

    21. Jwet!!! great chapter! I was really hoping that we’d get to see some of Alice’s writing. I really can’t wait until Helena gets caught by the bait. I’m still wondering what shane has in mind for her friend. I can’t wait for more:) please post soon:)

    23. What an excelent chapter…So well written and simply beatiful. I am glad the story was published and I hope things start looking up for are girls. Thanks a bunch for sharing this story. post real soon.
