Levi Wisdom



 
We have all been missing Julie lately.  I don't know that we've ever stopped missing Julie, but for some reason, probably because it has been a year ago on the 7th of this month that we lost Julie we have all been feeling it sharply.

Last night at the dinner table Levi said something that I have been thinking a lot about because it struck me and was an incredible way to describe the pain.  He said,  "I miss Julie.  When Julie died, it was a loud hurt.  I couldn't stop crying".

A loud hurt........

  1. And now I am crying again. It was a loud hurt. And a strange chain of circumstance. I remembered Piper this morning and it wasn't quite so loud anymore, but this is still loud, and now he is, too. Ah, Levi -

  2. He is spot on. That is my favourite concise description of loss yet.
