I hope you had the best seat in the house in heaven.

You would’ve loved it dad.  More importantly, you would love her.  We all love her.  She’s amazing.  She’s genuine.  She’s down to earth.   She’s funny.   She’s as beautiful as she is kind.  Speaking of kind -She’s kind, so very kind.   She loves mom, and she’s so good to mom.  She’s truly like a sister and that feels incredible.  It’s like she’s always been a part of our family – and a lot of the time I forget that you didn’t have the opportunity to meet her .  Most importantly, he loves her to the moon and back. They complete each other like two puzzle pieces, like peas and carrots, like bacon and eggs, like the ying and the yang.  I haven’t seen your boy this happy in decades.  There’s a sense of peace, tranquility –  they are truly soulmates.  Yes dad you would’ve loved it.

 

 

It’s weird – now when I encounter the elderly….

I wonder how much longer they’ve got on planet earth.

I want to hear all of their stories, soak up all of their wisdom, and just be present with them in that moment.

I wonder if they have a family.

I wonder if they have any friends left.

I wonder if they love their family and if their family loves them.

I wonder if they’re healthy or if they’re sick.

I wonder if they realize they are on borrowed time.
