It came as sort of a relief that she went, and I take immense comfort knowing she's with my son now. People were commenting on how strong I was, and how well I was "holding it together" - but Monday afternoon, getting the news of Glenn's passing just did me in. My legs literally gave out and I sat and cried for an hour straight.
So much has changed in such a short time. So many people I love gone.
Glenn's music has been such a source of solace for me the last couple of years, and it seems so unfair that listening to it now is so painful. But, I certainly keenly aware that time heals. Every day, I feel like listening to music again, feel like talking about it more.
The world has changed for me a lot in the past 2 years, as it has changed for all of us here this past week. We'll never get "over it" - we'll all just learn to live with it....more so, we'll begin to celebrate and be grateful for what we had.
