Pardon My French
I ran into a friend recently who I haven't seen for some time. She asked how my family was doing since my Dad's passing. "Isn't the year mark coming up?", she asked.
I looked down at my wrist as though my watch would say "September 15" or "Not September 15".
"Yeah, it's coming up," I responded, as though she had reminded me.
"Aw."
I was impressed at how I maintained my composure. I was able to let her believe she had reminded me. I won't be here. I will have my head in the clouds. I've kept it together for 365 days. Kept it together for my job, my family, my relationship. I deserve that day.
