Sad Saturday here.
I went to the cemetery, to make some preps for our funeral, next week,.
There was a Lady, at a new grave, nearby, who was working away to put some flowers in and on the new grave. This was, almost, next to the plot which my Daughter In Law will be buried in, on Wednesday.
She was crying and I felt embarrassed for being in her “space” .
I apologised and went to move on, but she noticed me, and stood up to chat.
Sadly, she had a speech impediment, I would guess, from a stroke, so I struggled to understand what she was saying.
However, if I understand correctly, the guy she loved had a heart attack and had a “delayed” response, from the system.
I felt even worse, because I was not getting all that she was saying (I’m somewhat low on hearing capability) - but she kept talking because, clearly, it was helping her.
A timely reminder that life is, currently tough for quite a lot of people.
It made me think!
There’s plenty worse off than us, on this planet!
