Today…

Today is the day that I have dreaded, every year, for the past 7 years. Each year I wish that we could somehow skip this day. And as it approaches, all I can do is pray for relief from the constant lump in my throat, the inevitable quiver of my lip, and the tears that I hope are shielded by my cubicle walls. Today, my heart is heavy. I miss you, little brother.

The day my world shattered…

  • claire - i just went back and read that post on your old blog about your brother… i lost my mom when i was 17, so i totally understand a lot of what you felt; i know my family will never be the same, either. and i too will always be a different person because of it. but i really feel that if i am a better person because of it, then at least it wasn’t all in vain–although that doesn’t stop me wishing every day i could bring her back. anyway, i just wanted to let you know i’m thinking about you and i can relate, at least a little bit, with how you feel.
