"Friends are as companions on a
journey, who ought to aid each other to persevere in the road to a happier
life."
~ Pythagoras
Connection to
those we love is critical. Sometimes it
seems the only thing that can get us through.
And it probably matters most when we lose loved ones. In a very short time, I have attended several
wakes. At each, I have marveled at how
people come together. Childhood friends,
business colleagues... people from different parts of our lives gather
together. They come to pay their
respects and to accompany the family members who remain. Continuing to live after losing a loved one
is very difficult and we rely on the kindness of those who journey with us.
