Re: Thanks
Far be it for me to tell you how to grieve, this story reminded me of a cycle vs. car tragedy as well. However, my thoughts were of thanks to the author instead of condemnation. Every time I think of Heather Howard I remember her thirst for life and am again reminded of why I loved her so much.
As for what you objected to, i.e., being reminded of the tragedy, well, not remembering it would be worse. In my humble opinion, of course. Death is the inevitable end of life and we can be thankful if we're living a life that has been worthy of the years we've been given. From what I knew, Heather's life overflowed with richness of experience and laughter.
We all have things to give thanks for, and I am thankful that six years of my life were spent in friendship and in love with an absolutely amazing woman.
