Sometimes Less IS More

I talk :0)

I talk alot :0)

I have been busting to get back to blogging.

So yesterday, on a day that my head was spinning with thoughts,

instead of doing what I would normally do

I did the opposite

I stepped out of my comfort zone

I spent a moment in time being quiet, standing still.

and the world kept spinning around me

no sh!T go figure :0)

I put a lot of pressure on myself.

ME? I put pressure on myself, no sh!T go figure :0)

I put so much pressure on myself to find the PERFECT shot to post for Wordless Wednesday

I ended up posting NOTHING!

If I posted the photos I wanted to post

I'm sure they would have been oooHHhhh and awhhhed over

HOWEVER

I didn't want to convey an ooOhHhh  awhhhh happy happy moment

I wanted people to be sad when they looked at the photo

because I was feeling sad.

I would have posted a half page essay explaining why I wanted to post a particular photo 

One I'd rather you

 silently observe

and that would have not been a

Wordless Wednesday

I postponed posting

and I am ok with that

what did I want to post

.........this..........

Our first born in his Fathers arms

Three Years ago yesterday, the little babe in this photo carried the man in this photo.

It was a bizarre juxtoposition! 

I watched it, I pinched myself, it was not real.

I didn't want it to be real.

I practiced denial....

....and I believe that three years ago, denial helped me get through the day.

Now three years on I believe I am starting to accept that this man is no longer with us, 

in an earthly sense that is

Three years ago my eldest child, my son, carried his father's coffin.

It was the closest he or one of his siblings had physically been to their father in well over four years.

My heart ached on so many different levels back then.

Today it mostly hurts

☆☆☆because he would be so proud of how bright our little stars are shining☆☆☆

it hurts me, because when I watch them succeed,

my heart is bursting with pride....more than enough for two people!

the aching in my breast is a good ache

We created these gorgeous talented people Murray

They miss you

I miss you

Thank You Murray
