She left us during the height of my hummingbird season, and we're almost at and end to that cycle for this year. It's a reminder to me that time continues and we have to sail that river for as long as we can. I also can look forward to seeing the hummingbirds again next Spring, and I can have hope that you and Kei will meet again at some point in the unseeable future. It's impossible to say yes or no, but hope is always a good thing to hold on to.
You're doing great. It's just marvelous to hear from you again, and that means you're dipping your toe into the water and watching those ripples. It's all good, and you've got a lot of support on-line - so many people.
But yes, although it gets easier, it almost seems like the wrong thing - that the pain of losing someone so dear should be sharp forever more. We're fortunate in the fact that these sharp edges always smooth out over time. The stones are still edged, but those edges are smoothed out by the water's action.
