This was a day of whistful memories for me: my best friend's grandmother died today. It brought me back to that summer day in 1988 when my own bubie died.

It's been 13 years now. The pain of loss has dimmed to a regular burning glow. Whoever said that time heals all wounds was full of it... 13 years, and it's a sad day that I still feel. It hits me often, in my kitchen... my main dish set came from what was brought from her last apartment here in Montreal. On ocassion, a plate or bowl breaks; at that time, realization that I've just lost a small part of my past brings me a moment of deep sadness.

My heart really goes out to my buddy. I can understand what he must be going through right now.
