Death
My maternal great aunt died today. My family had a few days' warning, so my grandmother was able to fly out to Israel in time to catch her little sister's last moments. The funeral will be held tomorrow.
I will be making a trip out to LA in October or November to be with family and friends. Since my visit should be about a month long, I hope to see all of you.
After losing a couple of friends and family members before, most recently my paternal grandfather, the presence death feels strangely familiar to me now. What's even more odd, is that in between the waves of mourning, the presence of death brings peace not far beyond the sorrow. I feel serenity in my weeping.
Life is astounding.
