Saturday, December 27, 2003 Today I had a really good conversation with my parents that started off with why did I have such a fascination with books about death when I was growing up. I'm weird, I know. In elementary school I asked the librarian where the stories on death were located. She looked at me like I was looney. Why the fascination? Maybe because having to deal with the death of Grandpa hit me at such a young age (I was six) that I never quite got over that. Maybe I wanted to know more, understand more and be able to adapt. I'm not sure. I've been very affected by each loss in my life (I know that isn't a revalation, who wouldn't be affected). I keep close to my heart the memories of each of the people I've loved dearly and lost. Cookie's loss has affected me most deeply and profoundly. She has been my everything since I've had her. I can't imagine what my life would be like had I not had her and especially had she not lived with just me. I was watching Love Actually today and there's a moment at the end of the movie when The Beach Boys song God Only Knows comes on and I always seem to think of Cookie at that part and I get all misty eyed. Because truly, God only knows what I'd be without Cookie. I am grateful for having been so truly blessed to have loved her and have her love me. posted by lisa | linkorama | |
