The devastations in 2020 continue to pile. A dear friend of mine experienced a tragic loss over the weekend. I only heard this morning and my heart is broken for them. Losing a loved one is one of the hardest things we can experience in life. The more you love a person the more painful the loss. The effect changes us indefinitely. It changes how we identify ourselves and leaves scars on our souls. Still, time heals most wounds. I wish I could say it heals them all. Maybe it does, or maybe it just never stops ticking away. The world continues to turn. The sun rises and sets. Along with many other concepts, time is beyond our control. There is comfort in knowing it will not stop because it gets easier as we put more chronological distance between ourselves and the ordeal. The fond memories will remain and those memories become priceless. That's why making good memories is important. Good memories are an elixir for the soul. Love those close to you. Invest time making good memories with them. One day that may be all you have.
