This Week was Silent

This week may have appeared to be rather silent on the blog. There's a number of reasons for this that I could offer you. But I'm not going to make my life complicated by explaining it in depth. Let's just say that the internet is down for a bit from home. It was also a rather emotional week in general as it's an anniversary/birthday time for someone dear to me that is no longer with us.

We all grieve in our own ways. So don't ever let anyone say that it gets easier, or that you should be done grieving. The pain of loss never really goes away, sometimes it still feels like it was only yesterday that we lost her. But it's ok.

This is a picture I took of her in 2003. Which means it's 14 years old, but that's how I see her in my mind. She's been gone for 12 years. I guess the way time flies doesn't change how we feel about some people, we always love them no matter what.

My Grandfather has been gone for 20 years now. I don't feel his death as sharply as my Grandmothers. I'm not really sure why, maybe it's because I was younger when he passed than I was when she did. But as I said earlier, we all grieve differently. So maybe it's normal to feel the way that I do.

In any case, my mind has been rather heavy. My heart hasn't been feeling so good. But be assured things are fine, I'm just feeling a little sad, but we'll be alright. We always are.
