Alki Beach 7:54PM ~ Seattle, WA ~ 09.08.07Memories of my mom are everywhere I go, but here at Alki Beach especially. Because she was here, I am here. She's been gone a year today, yet hardly a moment from my mind.

I'm glad to hear you keep your mother with you. The first year is so difficult.
Revisiting special places and remembering tender moments is important. I find such loopbacks bring me a blend of joy and melancholy that very slowly and quietly help me find the next steps.
There are so many messages which seem to remind us that such steps are shared and taken in the spirit of everlasting love.
