It never goes away. The hurt that is felt by all of us when people we love so much are taken and this huge void in our life remains. Here today and gone sometimes the same day and I guess you are supposed to "suck it up" and go on as if nothing happened as some will tell you. The loss is always devastating, and it forever changes everything about us. The visits, the phone calls, are gone. A mere memory. Did I dream all of this past? If I'm lucky I will remember all of the good times and the bad are not important.
What is important is to remember that who we are today is a direct link to all we have come in contact with our lives. They have given us perspectives, good and bad, and guided us on this path we call life.
God Bless Ma and Pa Haswell, Ma and Pa Sloan, brothers and sisters, aunts and uncles and cousins and friends and of course last but certainly not least all of our wonderful and beautiful animals that have graced our path. We miss you all so much but thank you all for being in our lives. WE LOVE YOU ALL !!!!!!!

Thanks, Honey, for being brave enough to write this. Of course, you know me, tears are streaming. I miss my Mama the most, I think, because we may not have always seen eye to eye, but she always did her best to try to accept me for who I was, and I learned to do the same for her. Acceptance, that's the hard part sometimes. I accept she and others are gone, but I still yearn for a glance between eyes, a touch, a smile... and I am so blessed that I get those from you. You are my Hero. I would not want to go backwards in time, that's for sure, not to feel all that intense pain again, so here's to the Herenow with a glimpse of tomorrow, should we be so blessed to have another day.

Very nice post and always true, it's timeless, because people will always pass through our lives. I haven't yet lost andybody who I loved, eventhough my mother died more than a year ago, she's been dead to me for decades and so were the other relatives who were traitors. but if anything ever happened to my own family, my husband and children. I really don't know how I would handle that! probably not very well, because they are my life!
I love the header of your blog! is that where you live? does that show your home?
We are living on a large farm in Denmark, which we currently are renovating. big job!
