It's especially meaningful since my sister was also a dark-eyed brunette and, like you, beautiful. I hope you don't dwell on the what-ifs and whens. I don't think my sister ever gave those much thought. Loss is hard enough to deal with when it happens and there's no preparing for it anyway. So enjoy every minute with your wonderful family and friends. I look forward to catching up on your blog. Thanks for stopping by!Moving with Mitchellhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12954028272162285597noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2367834014770669778.post-71922796490956144072012-10-05T21:40:26.600+02:002012-10-05T21:40:26.600+02:00This blog made me think about those close to me an...This blog made me think about those close to me and if, or when rather, I experience those losses how I'll be devastated and how my life will be immediately altered and the sadness I'll exude. I suspect I'll be downright witchy.<br /><br />But at the same time I think about that, I think of my own demise and those that feel the same way of me, primarily my children who will feel a surmountable loss. <br /><br />Even though it comes across as a double standard, I tell them I don't want them to dwell on the death but remember the life, my life, and those moments meshed with theirs and smile.<br /><br />I only hope that when I experience loss, because it will be inevitable, I'll be able to take my own advice.<br /><br />Great blog and thanks for the share. darkeyedbrunettehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08365941261498270069noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2367834014770669778.post-67050179971691347472012-10-04T13:56:50.721+02:002012-10-04T13:56:50.721+02:00Jim:
