Today, on what would have been her 41st Birthday, I took Kara for a hike. It’s the same thing I did last year when I took her boots with me to the summit of Neahkahnie Mountain. It was only a few weeks after losing her, though, and it was pretty intense. I didn’t know what I was going to do or how I was going to feel today, but when I woke, I decided that taking her on another hike was what felt right.
Grief is hard to shake. My first wife of 25 years passed suddenly 28 years ago and I still find myself thinking of her. Time doesn't heal all wounds, it just makes the memories easier. Love never leaves your heart.

Heartachingly beautiful
I wish we could all learn to walk backwards against the wind
