Morgan you have outdone yourself – o so beautiful and betrayed – i know that with so much beauty and truth it would be trifling to suggest – but i must – can you not somehow go and get the text colour to go white and so clearly visible against the beautiful lilac background – i did it on my theme – sure you can too – an honest appreciation from a friend. – wordpress allows text colour to be cdustomized – my suggestion is WHITE
