This post couldn’t have come at a better time for me. I know what you mean completely- I’ve been dealing with my own stupid tragedy these past two weeks, and in some ways it’s better, and in some ways, it’s just as bad as when I found out. And it’s a stupid tragedy too. A friend of mine had a double lung transplant in May, after years of disease made it so he only had 14% lung function. We all rejoiced, that his pain was done and he could finally finally live his life. He got five months of life, before dying in a car accident on I-95. Like his fiance said, he survived 14% lung function, killer infections, and a double lung transplant, to die in a horrible crash- where’s the sense? It’s stupid.

So I can understand that kind of pain, that kind of grief. No matter which way you put the puzzle pieces, they don’t fit.

I know what you mean–you wish you could make it mean something somehow, but it’s just stupid and a waste. And, trying to turn it into something other than stupid just makes it worse.

The hearts are wonderfully sweet, and it looks like good meditation to knit them up.

I never thought of it that way… we have had our share of losses and I have always had to believe that some things don’t happen for a reason: they just happen. If I tried to assign reason or rhyme to them, I’d never be satisfied. I love the hearts… a very special way to remember their child.

I love the hearts. They’re cute and sweet and perfect.

And yes, just stupid. That sums up any tragedy without reason that renders us all helpless in the face of it. You get pissed and indignant and try to find reasons that just aren’t there. I couldn’t respond before because I couldn’t find words. But really, you nailed it. Just plain stupid. Love from north of boston.
