… that’s the text message I sent her the day her mom died after a 2 year battle with cancer. I knew it was coming soon but even still I was Not Ready.

{in participation with reverb10. today’s prompt: Let Go. What (or whom) did you let go of this year?}

Sometimes a song says it all.

Have you ever … Closed your eyes and trusted, just trusted?
Have you ever thrown a fist full of glitter in the air?
Have you ever looked fear in the face and said, “I just don’t care”?

It’s only half past the point of no return
The tip of the iceberg
The sun before the burn
The thunder before the lightning
The breath before the phrase
Have you ever felt this way?

… the prompt for today reminds me why I’m not a personal blogger.

I like to be the question asker. My parents attempted a limit of number of questions I could ask when I was a small child. Known for being a firing squad of “ok but why” at a very young age. I don’t think I ever out grew that. When I meet new people there’s always a wonder of where they came from and why/how they got to be the way they are. Staying in the question is the best way to stumble across the best answers. And even when you think you’ve found an answer go back to the state of wonder and you might be surprised what’s after that…
