…my mom today. She’s okay…and I’m okay. It’s been a peaceful, but busy day. I took a walk this afternoon and just remembered everything…all the years, the last days, my journey, and then I just stopped into the little cemetery at the end of my road and gave gratitude for the life she and my dad gave me. I walked back home and climbed back into my life. As I got ready to meet a friend to go to Writer’s Night Out, I thought to myself that this is the natural progression of life. My mom left me to be the mom now, and eventually the Grandma. Her passing moved me into the next phase of my life and thanks to her teaching and wisdom, I think I can do it justice.
And so, as another memorable day goes by, fear is gone, peace has come, and…I have written.
