Love and Loss






I lost a very good friend yesterday. I don't know how a heart can be so full of love and broken at the same time. It hurts so much. She was one of the first friends I made when I moved to the area. She made me feel sane when my kids were on my nerves. She was always up for a party. She had a wonderful sense of humor and a husband who adored her. She took care of others and made it look effortless. She's left behind two teenage daughters and a grieving spouse. I miss her very much.

I'm so sorry, S. For you, for her husband and for her daughters. Why is life so damn unfair. It's your huge capacity to love that makes it hurt so much.

Thinking of you.

Expei,

I appreciate it. I have to think there is something to be learned from this. I'm thankful to have her in my life as long as I did.
