(Photos of my Vavie Amaro with some of her 23 grandchildren
My brother Marty is standing by her side then and now)
life is one big full ride
with twists, turns, getting lost,
wild downhill rides
and some long straight boring roads.
Filled with every emotion often in the same day
silly things
how life continues when it feels like it isn't
one moment my brother dies, the next I am washing dishes, a friend calls I cry, then a
a memory is shared and we laugh, I dry the dishes and go to bed.
wake up to my birthday.
Death comes and it doesn't seem real
a profound end
and life continues
but there it is and how it is
one full ride of everything all at once
Our days hold everything
and life simply challenges us to hang on
and live it
Hang on and live it
My brother would want that.
To see us doing all those daily life things
