There is a Monty Python sketch with the line "Move along then.. nothing to see here" while there is much to see and most of it is terrible and bloody. Sometimes I use that line on myself when I find that I am brooding on recent events, trying to make sense of them. The fact is that I am simply too close to it and I need the distance that only time can give.
Last night I got a sharp reminder about how other people may be feeling in all of this. My son Dylan [ yes son, not stepson -that is how I feel about him] called me very upset and missing me. I had spoken to him before and those time he was being cool and collected, assuring me all was well. But he had been to see a movie that had a character who reminded him of me. The character died in the movie and Dylan was very upset by that. It was too close to what he has been experiencing.
We talked about him visiting me and I was delighted with the idea. We will need to sort things out with his mom and figure out the best time. It will be really good for both of us.
