I am 89, and I have had more than a few time to say “ I love you, I will miss you, it it is OK to let go.” Being with some one at their end time is such a privilege.
Happy Birthday. At 88 I can say the best is yet to come. I loved dancing in the rain as a child, and even now I have done it with thanksgiving that rain has come to our parched land.
Thank you for your reflections.
