Aerianne, among my extend family these events serve as occasions for different branchs of the family to meet and forge new links and mend the circle.
You are right, Ranger. Very wise observation. I've been thinking alot about that this past week. Thank you MamaPeace and Spectacles.
Thank you, Ty. It's hard to see my niece suffer this. I sat away from her during the service and during the dinner following. I could not take my eyes from her much. I felt so protective of her and felt that I had to keep gauging her level of well-being. It was kind of strange to experience the whole thing in that way.
oh jeez Aeri I'm sorry for what your family and you are going thru... big :grouphug: your way lady. Take care of yourself and family.
I ate dinner with a 100 year old lady tonight after the memorial service. Man, was she ever sharp! Such a treasure. She said she remembers WWI like it was yesterday. She made jokes endlessly. I enjoyed her whit and intellect so much. What an inspiration.
Morning all, New dawn new day new life. Fairlight, my thoughts are with you today at your grandmothers service. Aerianne, sounds like that was one strong hearted lady, its always a pleasure meeting such vibrant characters! I also send positive energy to you and yours at this time. Full moon last night was nice, the sky was really clear here so I went outside for a while, it was freezing cold but I find that refreshing sometimes. Strange too that I dream every single night other than a full moon! I think the same is true of babyp, she sleep talks, sleep cries or sleep laughs most nights but shes really peaceful when the moon is full.
Well don't I feel like an arse. Fairlight much love to you brother. Real sorry bout your Grandma. Sending you big :grouphug: Stay strong friends. It's hard saying goodbye to the ones we love. Try to find some comfort in knowing they are moving on to a better place, but still remain here with us in our hearts,souls and memories. Something I try to remind myself when I miss my dad. Stay true to each other, don't be afraid to love. Best Wishes as always. -abs-
Blessing to those that need or want them. I saw the full moon this morning at 4 when I was out walking Grace. Awesome!
