Excited For Her/But Understand the Mixed Emotions

Tweet

A week from today, my friend M, moves from her home for the past twenty one years to a new to her home, closer to the Church, and many of our members, and a place less likely to get snowed in, I've been to her old place, and though the view is spectactular, its definitely time for her to move closer. As I was talking to her the other day, I asked her if she was excited, she mentioned she wasnt as excited as she thought she could be, I told her its likely because your overwhelmed the past couole of years have brought some incredible looses, some of the voices that once filled her home are gone now, but the memories are with her. I wrote a couple of poems in memory of her husband, one that she asked me to write for his memorial so she could read it, and she did, as well as for other family members she lost. I never had the pleasure of meeting her daughter she had passed away shortly before we met, though I have met her Son and Grandchildren!
