Your friend sounded like a wise woman and mama, and she may likely have thought ahead to the time you would be grieving her loss, and maybe she's fine with however it goes for you. Your own journey is the right way for you. It sounds like you have shifted towards letting go and acceptance, and trusting in the healing, and remembering her laughter is a beautiful way to acknowledge your connection to her, and for it to live on. She sounded lovely.<br /><br />I like to think of both my brother's and my Dad's twinkling eyes and smiles and of my Dad's gentle playful energy, it always brightens my mood. <br /><br />Please know you are in my thoughts, and have been for a week or so, and if you would ever like to connect for support or to share a special memory, just to have someone there, please don't hesitate! You gave me such support during my own grief processes, and I would love to return that presence with a compassionate ear and heart.<br /><br />Sending love to you and your family....<br /><br />~ErinErinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06671726791773046278noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3559352152168236450.post-51081144693073527502010-09-19T19:56:18.552-07:002010-09-19T19:56:18.552-07:00Oh, I am so sorry.
