Last night was the first night alone (except for Harley) in the camper. I slept great! The AC makes great white noise. I wasn't going to turn it on, but it drowns out the traffic which is very loud.
Harley and I slept until 8am! We went for a walk and now coffee and breakfast. Mentally making plans for the day. I need to stop that habit because it only stresses me out.
On another note. I just read an email from All Saints about a dear couple in our congregation who lost their son and daughter in law in a car accident last week. I really and truly have no words for what they must be going through, but it puts my whining about Ben being gone in perspective. I know I turned around to my pain, but it can't even begin to compare to suddenly losing your child. Life is precious, and I need to take my brother's words and what I know to be true, to stay in the present moment and observe what is happening in the here and now. What is past is past, what is the future, no one can tell. Learn from the past to ensure your future is smoother, but stay here because you will never have this moment again.
