And Soon, They’re Going To Close, But I’ll See You Another Day

“I wish that Heaven had visiting hours
So I could just swing by and ask your advice
What would you do in my situation?
I hadn’t a clue how I’d even raise them
What would you do? ‘Cause you always do what’s right”

Ed Sheeran – Visiting Hours

This is not a planned post, not an “I sat and wrote this out beforehand, and now it’s time” kind of post. I had hoped that I would have more of a break in writing about these kinds of things but the universe has different plans. Who am I to question that, life is life, and it can be gone just like that. I last sat down and did this in July of this year. I truly did not expect to have to do it again and yet here we are. I know we have all lost loved ones during this crazy Covid time, from Covid and from other things, so it’s not lost on me that I’m not the only one dealing with this.

But I would be lying if I didn’t say I’m numb from losing people at this point. From the beginning of 2021 to now, five are now gone, all family. The great thing about my family is my great-grandmother had eight kids, so we had a big family growing up. That was awesome because family functions were always busy and full of life. The obvious downside to that comes in that they all get older at the same time and as that happens everyone’s time is ticking down. It seems to come in bunches on my end. Hopefully, I don’t have to do this again before this year is done.

I wrote this back in July, but it still rings true this time. I’ll remember them always and do my best to make them proud. There are places to go and things to see. Things they didn’t or couldn’t or wouldn’t. I’m not going to pass those up when I get the chance. Life is too short, live it while you can, spend time with those you love, and tell them always, you never know when that chance will be taken away from you. This isn’t an I won’t be blogging for a while post or anything like that, I will, it’s my outlet and I love it. I just wanted to talk it all out and this place is the best place for it. Thank you if you read this far, live life, with no regrets, and do all the things. Stay safe out there friends. I’ll be back some more upbeat fun stuff soon too. I promise.

“And I will close the door, but I will open up my heart
And everyone I love will know exactly who you are
‘Cause this is not goodbye, it is just ’til we meet again
So much has changed since you’ve been away”
