Well......hmmmmmm....well. I'm going to describe my state of being as Willy Wonky, those who know me won't think much of that. Ha! Today was what I will call weird, one of those days that contain a feeling of odd familiarity. I met Bob, a journalist that is writing a book about the ocean, about a month ago. He was asking for directions to the great tidal pool. It happens to be one of my favorite places to find birds and is the place I spotted the stranded sea otter last week. I ran into him again the following day, where we met today. He asked if he could interview me about my healing walks by the ocean. Today we met and talked.
Questions about Phil, my mind feels jumbled. Last year at this time, things had become more difficult. Phil would end up in the hospital, Noelle moved in to help and we began the last few months of his life. It was one of the hardest times I have lived through and yet I treasure the last days with him.
Images didn't come easily to me, on this day. I did however end up walking 8 miles. When I wasn't walking I took time to just watch the world around me.
I enjoyed talking to Bob. He has a relaxed personality. The situation all feels as if it is just another step in my healing. Talking about it can be cathartic, especially with someone who is just an objective listener. I hope I helped him with his book project too.
For Phil:
I miss you.
I'm trying to tell your story.
The blog below is from last year at this time.
Hard to look at and yet it is our story.
