Memorial Day, May 31, 2010
It has been a day of mixed grieving, sorrow for those who have died in wars everywhere, but also for certain friends and loved ones. There is no loneliness more empty and cold than knowing we can never meet again on this earth, and that the laughter we have shared has turned to tears - sincere and uncontrollable.
I thank my friend of many years, Jean Ullrey, who said a silent prayer in church yesterday for me. She has always reminded me that a stack of interesting books waiting to be read, and time to read them in comfort, is one blessing we have in common.
More about everything I can think of will be in the following blogs. I will welcome my Twitter and Facebook friends and I do hope to read a comment from them now and then in answer to questions posed here, if any.

Good to see you posting again.
Piles of books are good. Hope at least part of your day was pleasant.

Great post.
I have come to believe, after much thought and reflection over the years, that we grieve for ourselves, but need to remember to be joyful for those who have passed on. One of my good friends is a gifted psychic and she gives me warm messages from those I love who have crossed over often
You'll have that laughter with your friends again! And, just think of the tennis you'll be watching together!
Love, Carrie
