April is my favourite month. Full of beginnings of spring, everything beautiful ahead. As time passes I've learned to appreciate fall for its similarity to spring despite its more dismal direction into winter. April, however, will always be my favourite because of my 4 university years when school wrapped up so nicely in the same month that the weather got so enjoyable. I loved studying outside during that time.
Just as I've been enjoying spring's arrival this year, all my beloved blogs have ended. Well not all, but definetly some of my faves. I like the idea of my friends ending their blogs as the "story" they meant to tell comes to a natural close (http://natandmarty.blogspot.com) . Moving forward in growth makes sense and is beautiful, though I'll miss the joy it brings to my day to check how my friends are doing.
Timing so had it, that another of my favourite blogs ended today for a different reason. Eva Markvoort of http://65redroses.blogspot.com passed away after her long battle with Cystic Fibrosis, and most recently, chronic organ rejection. We all hoped for a different ending. It seemed excessively unfair that she should get an extra 6 weeks of unexpected hope for nothing. With her unfailing love for life and people, however, I know in my heart that 'nothing' is far from what those 6 weeks meant to her and her family. I think a part of me wanted to see her receive her miracle to add hope to my own expected future. I feel selfish saying it aloud, but its the truth. I wish none of us had to suffer the way we do. Breathe easy, Eva, I will go back and read your blog for inspiration throughout my journey.
Love love love...
