..with every new death is a new beginning...
Click here to hear the song How Do You Keep The Music Playing?
"How do you keep the music playing
How do you make it last
How do you keep the song from fading too fast
How do you lose yourself to someone
And never lose your way
How do you not run out of new things to say..."
Its strange, I thought that my July 29th, journal entry would remain at the top of my journal for the next year or two. I was actually considering dating it for July 29th, 2026 so that it would remain at the top of my journal for always. But no..... they say that with every new death is a new beginning. So it is fitting that with the new death in my life, that I begin a new journal entry.
My brother contacted me today to tell me my sister died. How strange is that? I feel numb. I loved my sister. Out of everyone in my family I thought that she would be the last to go because she was the goody two shoes. I actually didn't even consider that she would die, but I always braced myself for everyone else in my family dying... because we are always into crazy stuff. It was only in August that my sister and I spoke about growing old together. What do you say when your sister dies? What are you supposed to feel? How do you keep the song from fading too fast?
I dedicate this journal entry to the memory of my sister.
I love ya...
Love for the people,
