anniversary
Many of you here have heard me write ad infinitum about David, who, after much whining and pleading on my part :smt005 , "came back" (I'm actually not sure he was ever really gone) last year to guide me, teach me, protect me and my family, and just generally make me REALLY happy--bringing along with him a host of other wonderful experiences, and other spirits.
Today is the 18th anniversary of his passing. Now that I've FINALLY become convinced that the evidence that he's around is not all just the result of my desperate imagination (with the help of some of you wonderful people, who have affirmed my experiences and helped me understand them every day), the day doesn't seem nearly as sad as it otherwise would (and David's kind of insisting that I don't get sad!). But April 21st, 1990 was still one of the three saddest days in my life (the other two being on the passings of my grandparents). I don't want to make it a day of mourning, but I can't just ignore it, either!
I've been trying to figure out a good way to commemorate the "anniversary", and I thought that maybe posting some poems I wrote about our time together when he was "alive" (he still seems pretty "alive and kickin'" to me!) about 5 years after his passing might be a nice way to do it.
So I'm doing that under "Poetry and Literature" here, in case anyone is interested. And I want to thank you all again for helping and supporting me in so many ways here. You've been wonderful.

Hi Doe
Days like today are always a celebration of the blessing that come from knowing the people who have passed.
i count myself lucky every day that Dad visits and protects mum and my family.
Davo never really left he just had to take care of the other business that guides do.
He will always be on your right side with one hand on your shoulder..Even with the pixie hat you wear.
So huge hugs from me and congrats on your celebration day.
Cheers Pete

Thanks again to all of you! I/we made it through the day--it was DEFINITELY a huge improvement over 4/21/90!!! So many little miracles happen all the time (not so little, really!).
Pete, it's funny that you mentioned my right side. Back then, D. used to sleep on my right side. I always ask him now to come hang out on that side as I'm falling asleep, as it soothes me and makes me happy. He always obliges...![:)](./images/smilies/001.gif)
And I used to wear a funny hat back then, too--he's used to it!
