Life seems infused with a bittersweet component…a seemingly random balance that can, too easily, shift one way or the other, resulting in our being caught off-guard on some intrinsic level to the events that confront us and move through us. It becomes quite difficult at times to back up enough to retain a larger view of things. It’s a bitch and, at the same time, reason for celebration. As much as living rips apart my heart on occasion, I wouldn’t trade it for anything.

I’m sorry to hear that this time if year is sad for you as well. My maternal grandfather and paternal grandmother both passed away on the same day in November, albeit years apart. It’s all compounded by the expectation to be cheerful and busy this time of year, isn’t it?

Best wishes for you and your family – hang in there.

yes. I boycott Easter these days, because all I can remember now is that my father’s funeral was the day before Easter in 2004. Takes the joy out of it.

Hang in.

My good friend lost his 22 year-old daughter to a car accident last Friday. I feel his loss and everyone else’s. People should not die at Xmas time.
