Thank you, all. And, implicitly, for understanding the relative radio silence,

Welcome, jessacorn. You know, that “selfish note” is really very helpful. It’s one of the few, most powerful grace notes amidst the long (long) reverberating shocks from grief and loss — the knowledge that others take note, and live (or in my case, attempt to live) differently. We’re now over two weeks out andI still haven’t yet been snagged by old bickery relationship habits. I still can’t shake the truth that we’re too damn lucky to keep waking up to each other and our family.

To echo the comments above, I’m sorry for your loss. On a more selfish note I want to tell you that your words nudged me out of a pointless and unecessary lull and reminded me to live. Thank you for posting.

I’m so sorry to hear about your loss. I hope the light on the fairy wings is a comfort to you as you reminisce and remember those you’ve lost.

it has changed me too, how i look at things, how i feel, and most importantly in how i see and feel each moment.
having lost a friend about a week and a half earlier than that, in a car wreck in uganda, it’s a double whammy dose.
life is, among other things, cruel, precious and mystifying.
