Easter used to be my favourite holiday. But since M's death last year on Wednesday before Easter it is with very mixed emotions I enter this weekend.
Since Easter this year is much later than last year I had hoped it would be easier, but unfortunately next week is his shoul-have-been birthday as well as date of funeral so well, it's not a very joyous time...
Some day it'll get easier, a year down the line not so much.
I got a very unexpected phone call yesterday with a possible offer of something - not work-related - that I hadn't thought of at this moment in time, but the more I think of the possibility the more it feels very right. I hope it will happen and that it will be as sweet as I imagine - perhaps I'll have some cute news to blog about next week.
Also, the cherry blossom trees are very early this year (due to some warm days in March, even if snow fell today...). It was a lovely, albeit cold, sight yesterday.
Hope your Easter is a joyful, kind and loving holiday, happy weekend!
Wishing you all the best. Unfortunately, life still has to go on, whether we feel like it or not. All we can do, is make the best of it. We will always remember past events and the people we know and loved. We are all better for our experiences.
