Long & Slow...

A rock skipped by Jim on the lake.


"Time is too slow for those who wait,
Too swift for those who fear,
Too long for those who grieve,
Too short for those who rejoice,
But for those who love,
Time is not."

~ Unknown ~

How very true... waiting for everything to fall into place felt like it would never come...

We feared the worse and for what? What we imagined the worse could be was piddly in comparison to what actually could and did happen...

A million tears have been shed in the last 306 days... each one carrying with it a lifetime of new found hurt...

How could we know that while we were celebrating the beginning of a new life they were planning the end of one?

And yet no amount of time or space will ever take from me the love he showed me. The love I had for him. The love I continue to have for Jim.
