"No more to build on there."

Note: Thanks, everyone for your kind words. I get to go to a memorial service for my friend this weekend, where we'll talk about her and laugh and hug.

It's time, past time, to get back to the business of living.

"...And they, since they/Were not the one dead, turned to their affairs."

Gone

A friend died yesterday. I don't know what to do with myself. I want to talk to people, to make connections, but it's her I want to be able to talk to. I want to ask her how it was for her, what was she thinking in those last few days, hours, what did she feel?

It's not an original observation, but the world is richer because she was in it.
