One day, many years ago, back in High School, I was having a really bad day. My friend Syd could tell something was wrong and asked me what was going on. I told her that it was my sister Laura's birthday and I was really missing her. She told me that we shouldn't grieve everyday, but on days like birthdays or anniversaries of death it is justified to have a bad day and miss someone who has passed.
Well today is Syd's birthday, and I miss her. A lot. It comforts me to know that I have her permission to miss her today.
Happy Birthday, Syd!
