All Soul's Day was Fri, the day I had the R talk with H.
I'm not a religious person and I don't believe that spirits visit us (I also don't quarrel with people who believe they do)-I believe we carry the spirits of those we love who have passed in our bodies. They are forever a part of us.
My Dad's family was Catholic so I had a bit of an introduction to the Day and now living in the southwest for all these years I've really gotten to know more about Dia de los Muertos. The parade here was last night and although I've never gone (loser) the photos are always amazing. People take great care with their costumes and sugar skull makeup and the spirit world has been very active in these parts this last week.
I realized on Sat that last week was the 10th anniversary of my Dad's passing. He and I had a special bond, and I really felt his presence when I came home on Friday night and had a good cry. He would want so much better for me.
I wish I had thought to put out his favorite food-chocolate.
Thanks, Dad.

Let me give up the need to know why things happen as they do. I will never know and constant wondering is constant suffering. Caroline Myss
