So, I've loved Tom Robbins forever, specifically Still life with Woodpecker. It speaks to me, blah blah.
To that effect I had completely forgotten about this blog, and how I had structured it.
This book, and the passages I have highlighted in it, are all the more important to me now, because it was how i contextualized my grief over the passing of my cousin. It was how I organized the eulogy at the service. It framed the questions that I ask myself and others everyday.
How do you make love stay when your whole world is seemingly crumbling around you.
My only answer is to remember, to hold on to the people you care about and keep moving forward.
Oh, and support me in the Becel Ride for the Heart and Stroke foundation. That's how you can show your love for me :)
