It's been 6 years today Jen, since you breathed your last breath. I wasn't by your side, but my heart was there. Your death taught me so much! There is no way I could even begin to name all of the lessons I learned, and I'm sure some of them I am not even aware of yet. But the most important one I feel, was to be AWARE. To be aware of my own life! To hug EVERYONE and do it often. To pay attention. Especially to the ones who are closest to me, and to tell them that I love them often. I know that…

Dear Jenny
I almost called you the other day. I was talking to Jess and when we hung up I was excited and my first thought was 'I gatta call Jenny' I had the phone in my hand and wanted to dial your number. For one moment in time it seemed you where still here. That everything that happend almost six years ago never happened. It hasn't ever happened like that. Before, for the first year I would want to call you, but I always knew you wouldn't be there to answer. Funny.
Jess assisted me the othe…

Dear Jenny,
Sorry I didn't get this posted on your birthday. Your 29 this year. Happy B-day. We had a Lord of the Rings marathon. We started at 9:30 am and we went to 10 pm. It was a lot of fun! We had second breakfast, elevensy’s etc.
It’s been awhile, I’m going through a reawaking process. I hadn’t realized that I was shut down. I remember the Savoir asking me if I was willing to live for him because he knew that I would die for him. I guess now I know what he was talking about so I’m learni…

I have been asked (on a few different occasions), "What has Raven had to say about your weight loss?"
And I was just as surprised as everyone else was (the 1st time I was asked that question), because it wasn't something I'd even thought about... until then. But we were all shocked how I actually had to stop & think it over for a few, but I still came up with... "NOTHING"?!
Then, a few days ago Raven had me look up the website of some group who did a puppet show @ her old school. She was t…

Rain ,walking in it ,sloshing ,hands deep in pockets head bowed down.
No one can see your tears in the rain ,
No one can see your pain in trudging rain.
Rain Rain Rain down on me ,foolish dreamer .

MISS YOU
In the calling of the late night birdsong ,lying there awake ,
I miss you
In the morning traffic rush oblivious to breakfast show chatter,
I miss you
I’ll sit quietly on couch drink in hand ,contemplating,
I miss you
In my dreams
I miss you
I’ll walk alone, it may b…

A BEAUTIFUL WAR
For days and days preparations made
millions gathered in the shade
from every country every climate every hue
Meadow waited there as silent they put flowers in their hair
took up positions without a care men on one hill women on the o…

Stumbled upon this cosy site, and boy am I excited. This is something akin to what a group of us are currently working on - a project called 'Dielog', that aims to provide a comfortable platform that allows people to have meaningful and personal conversations about death. What i'm really esctatic about is how this site is so alike in terms of our vision...and that probably means every member here could be a part of 'Dielog'/contribute in some way. I'm not trying to 'steal' anything from this bea…

Dear Jenny,
It's May already, in a few days it will be Jess's birthday, how time flies by. I remember finding out I was pregnant with her and we were so excited. It brings tears to my eyes to remember feeling her move for the first time, I didn't know what it was at first. We were living with Grandma Hook, so she was there if I had any questions. It was great living with her and experience her love.
I've realized that I have learned about love from those around me, my parents, friends, family.…
