Life
The only thing you can count on in life, is change.
I’ve been fortunate in life to have a large family. Six aunts and an uncle on my mom’s side of the family. Despite life’s ups and downs, they’ve been the one constant. So, it’s tough to be reminded that they are human, vulnerable.
Two of my aunt’s are in the hospital.
My Aunt A who has been kind and loving to me –despite our polar opposite politics– has late stage cancer. Nobody deserves to suffer from cancer… At any stage of life. We’re prepared for the worst… ☹️
My Aunt M fell, and needs live in support. Something else is up, and we hope it isn’t serious. I hope she recovers, and is okay. There is too much unknown. It’s hard to see this happen to her, as we’ve been so close in my life. I’m so grateful I got to visit her last year. ☹️
It’s so hard to see people I love age. Especially right now during the pandemic. I haven’t even had a funeral for my grandfather, who passed last October.
This too will pass, until we all do. Despite being sad, I’m grateful for these tears. Back to “one day at a time”.

Oh man 😦 I am so sorry to read of your two aunts, and am thinking of them…. and you!
They say that crying is good for our health – it reduces pain, releases endorphins, and promotes well being.
Not that I like that you are crying though, mind you.
I hope you find some comfort, and that all will be as okay as it can be.
Sending virtual hugs your way.

Blowing in the Wind is so pertinent. When I was going through a really stressful time, it was Everything is Dust in the Wind as it was on the hit list in the 70s — early 80’s.
