My Cup Runneth Over ...
...with sadness.
I blog-hopped this evening.
I read about BHD's trip back east to be with family.
I felt sad.
Brian gave his father a beautiful eulogy at An Audience of One.
He misses his dad.
I cried.
I wanted to go somewhere I had never been.
I followed a link from Brian's page.
The name appealed to me.
It was The Narcissist's Secrets.
It has a new name now: The Next Chapter.
I read about the birth and death of the beautiful baby Oliver.
He was 12 days old.
I cried.
Oddly enough these last two connected for me.
The most important man of my childhood was my granddad.
He was the kindest, gentlest, most loving man - ever.
I was born on his 54th birthday.
I loved and respected him like Brian did his father.
I wanted to name my daughter (if I had one) after him.
His name was Oliver.
I'm turning the computer off for the rest of the night.
My heart hurts for people that I don't even know.
Tonight's Plan: Make a wish for peace and healing around the world.

It's amazing how things about people we don't even "know" can enter our minds and tug on our emotions. And when someone is as kind-hearted as you, it's bound to happen all the more.

On another note... my word verification is foxchasb, the closest thing that I've had to a word yet!
