When I heard that you were gone
I sat here and thought of you.

I’m participating in the A to Z Challenge for the month of April. The idea is to post every day, except Sundays, and end up with one post for each letter of the alphabet. It’s a good challenge to help me to blog every day.

I like this not sure what or who but nice picture
Thanks, Lynn. I always liked the pic too. I took it last summer when my gramma died. I’ve been thinking about her a lot lately and came across this photo again the other day, so I decided to post this.
Oh so sorry 😦
Thanks, it’s OK though. It was expected, and I was able to say goodbye before she died. She had a long battle with dementia/Alzheimer’s and overall declining health. The things that happen to us when we reach our 90s huh? But you still miss people sometimes. Thanks for your thoughts.
Yes you still miss people for sure! I loved this one it made me wonder and was very thoughtful!
Thank you Lynn! Glad to hear you enjoyed it.
I lost my father recently at 87 years of age and will always remember him in all of his favorite places – walking the hills in his neighborhood in San Francisco, where he befriended many of the neighbors and his favorite city, Venice, where he had as much or more energy and enthusiasm as the rest of the family each and every day.
I am sorry for your loss. What nice memories of your father, he must have been very friendly and well-liked.
L is for loss…my word, this has been quite a week, and just the title really hit home with me. On Wednesday 13th, was the anniversary of my dad’s death, He has been gone 19 years, and I still miss him as if it were yesterday. Lovely pic, Cynthia. x
Thank you Lynne. I’m sorry for your loss of your dad. It must have been an emotional week for you. Anniversaries are a kind of reminder, but we still miss those people every day and for so many reasons. Wishing you peace and sending hugs xo
thank you, hugs to back to you. x
Thanks
🙂
Two short lines that say so much. We all know we must face this kind of loss at times in our lives, but knowing that doesn’t make it any easier when those times hit. Beautifully expressed, Cynthia.
Thank you. I’m glad that you could connect with what I was trying to say. You’re right, it’s something we all have to deal with at some point.
