My Dad had his stroke on Valentine's Day in '96, and set everything in motion that would be a bit over a year from Hell for me.<br /><br />I guess my reason for stating that, is that we eventually get over the hurt of the Loss.<br /><br />I spoke at my the memorial service for my friend, Robert... I spoke of a passage I had read once about how when we lose someone, the hurt we feel is because when our loved one left, he/she took a part of us with them... Eventually, we get to where we can smile and laugh again about that person we've lost, and that's when we discover that they have left of part of themselves with us... and that is the basis for our smiles.<br /><br />May you smile again soon...<br /><br />Thinking of you always...<br /><br />~shoes~Red Shoeshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01919277206516592912noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9132911385909998590.post-60336780861188306022012-02-14T12:23:25.907-05:002012-02-14T12:23:25.907-05:00Beautiful story, Shannon.

Almost put some rocks in my backpack, then thought, it won't be good for the knee's. but I did envision a backpack full of rocks, and with each lap I released them.
