Tomorrow the 12th is, or would have been Becky's birthday...
Abbey and I will go to the cemetery. We do have good reflection, good talk and deep, meaningful moments of silence. Inevitably, a visit to the cemetery reminds us of where we are in this journey, where we were and perhaps where we may go...We do like to discuss these life measurements...while also being engulfed in the moment..on that gentle hill...under that tree, seeing the vast landscape 'stamped' with headstones...seeing the planes flyover, the LA Forum in the distance..we just absorb it...
Becky loved to give on birthdays..she would also write the birth dates of seemingly everyone she knew, in her calendar.
Just to note..I remember going to the cemetery on the first birthday after Becky's passing. It was a hard, hard day..her birthday was truly a tough one. I can say, I think the heart heaviness does lighten..time does it's thing I suppose. But, as we drive out tomorrow..I am sure the reflection will be just as comprehensive and penetrating as before.
Hope you and yours are finding sweet moments of reflection..
Much Love,
Bill
