Beginnings & Endings

My grandmother passed away this morning. She was 90, suffering from dementia and her health had declined rapidly in the last few months. She lived in a nursing home in the Bronx and when I got the call, I wrestled with whether or not I could possibly make it down to the nursing home and back before the craziness that is rush hour in New York City on New Year's Eve hit. After meeting with the funeral director, it won't happen and I feel incredibly guilty about it. Then I found this which made me feel a little better:

"Though no one can go back and make a brand new start, anyone can start from now and make a brand new ending."

This seemed fitting today:

A Dream, A Simple Fantasy...

The title of this post is from a DeBarge song. I quote songs a lot. Must be the writer in me.

Today's tidbit: "Don't let anything slow you down on your road to victory."

Be well :-)
