Chapter 191 ~ A Lamentation for the Fallen...

"Death Will Never Conquer" - Coldplay


The funeral Saturday went alright. I can't really say much else other than, the pain's a little greater than I can bear right now.

I could really use a distraction. Until then...

There is a quaint and proper halo,
when the tears can't be cried,
when the pain can't be said enough,
when the hurt isn't worth the words--

a silver lining in the clouds of despair,
in the dark sky of sorrow,
that silver lining being hope,

the assurance of faith in things
greater than the pain.


To the few and many that have passed on,
to leave friends and loved ones behind,
but not without leaving sweet reminders
of the reward for keeping the faith...

"Love" ~ The Sundays *song of the week*


May they and all the souls
of the faithful departed,
by the Mercy of God,
Father, Son, and Holy Spirit,
rest in peace,
light perpetual ever shining upon them.

Amen.



I think that, finally, I have begun to move on. Again.

[What goes down in the Underground...]

Mondays start the new workweek. Wednesdays tend to differ, depending on if I need to work or not--usually I'm off, and usually visiting "Uncle" Joseph. Thursdays is the Daughters of the King meeting night. Fridays and Saturdays are normally hectic--never the same drama twice. Sundays = Church day. I update the blog accordingly, with a rant or two, the occasional music post, and sometimes the most random nonsuch.

So stay tuned, because things are fixing to get interesting... and, save your forks--the best is yet to come...
