How should we then live? Always painful to survive those who just passed.. there is a sense of incompleteness that can’t hardly be put in words.. Kinda of wanting to put the world on hold while I take time to grieve and overcome my sense of loss. Nope. No time. Life goes on and on and that’s truly.. wonderful.
So from here we go to the future and beyond.
