There are dark pages in our lives where we would gladly have changed the story if we could. There are wounds that still ache, and losses that even yet are hard to bear. But however we may feel about the sorrow, there are few of us who would be willing to give up all that it has brought and taught us, or to be just where we were before it touched us. There are profound gains that come only through sorrow's gate.
A wake is being planned for a future, as yet undetermined, date when we can come together and remember . . . .
