Dear Katie:

“I feel crappy remembering these things because we may never do them together again. I may never catch him smiling at me when I’m casting my line. I may never have him hold out his hand to  touch mine..”-

Interesting, isn’t it, that after each time that he smiled at you, it could have been the last time. Every time he held your hand, it could have been the last time, never to experience it again, for a variety of possible, realistic reasons.

There never was.. a forever. When I understand this Reality in my life- that there is no forever, that today may be all there is, the “never” doesn’t feel as tragic.
