another letter to you, it's february 8, 2011

Dear friend,

Sometimes when I selfishly think of all of the worst things that have happened in my life, I think of you. I wish I didn't; I wish you were only the best thing, and nothing else.  But you were.  You were both -- the best thing when you were here, and your death the worst.

How can I still struggle with realizations that I am profoundly different because of the fact that you died?  My heart circles around the same drain.  I wonder how long before I put a plug in it.

All this is to say that I miss you.  I wish you were here to help me decide how to live my life these days.  This was something you were always good at.  Something I haven't been.

Love,

Deanna
