I can’t believe it’s been 6 years since the worst day of my life. But at the same time, I feel like I’ve healed more this year than I have in the 5 years previous. Combined. I’ve spent a lot of time with Patrick & the rest of the brotherhood. I’ve cried with them a lot. I’ve laughed with them a lot. I’ve loved them a lot. Being with them makes my soul happy. And I think Max would be happy about it.
So today when I visit his grave, it will be with a lot more love & light in my heart than love & sadness. And I will continue to celebrate his life & his existence with those who love him as much as I do.
