Even within the realm of dillydallydom ...
... things are not always well. Our hearts in this remote corner of the planet are heavy ... we have had a great loss ... I am grieving.
On January 31st, we lost a loving member of our community. We watched her grow from infancy into the talented, capable and beautiful woman she became. Two beautiful young children have lost their mother. Our dear friends, her parents, have lost their only child. The community lost the magic of her personality and intellect. The loss is so great ... the grief all consuming ...
As we struggle with our pain and seek comfort, I am once again reminded ... all that matters ... all that remains ... the only thing that is eternal ... is love.

My prayers are with you and your little community. The words of Dr. Seuss have comforted me in the past - "Don't cry because it's over. Smile because it happened." God bless!
ReplyDeleteMy prayers are with you and the community. I know how you are all family in a small community. Everyone is your brother, sister, son or daughter. My prayers to the family also as they find strength to move forward from this devastating loss.
