(temporarily) paved paradise

Don't it always seem to go
That you don't know what you've got
Till its gone

These words, albeit taken completely out of context, sum up pretty much my thoughts regarding what's been going on over the past month. As much as the little idiosyncrasies and recurring questions and what not may have caused distancing on my part over the past, i don't know, ten or more years, the swift and sudden progression of events culminating in early this morning bring about a strange sense of longing for just a quick fresh experience of being at the receiving end of some of these actions that would otherwise draw me further away. I'm glad for the minimal suffering though, and trust that all that was expressed during the past couple of days especially was heard - after all, hearing and touch are the last to go they say... There's an endless succession of brighter days in a better place ahead, and the prayer now is that one day in that place there will be a joyous reunion - if it is in God's will, then for everyone, bar none. And until then, while there will always be regrets and struggling to know what to feel and all, the important thing is i guess to keep looking ahead, and more importantly looking upwards...
