So sorry for your loss! Hope the two anniversaries keep balancing the joy and sadness each evokes. Take care!

There’s a line in Henry IV where the old king asks, “Will fortune never come with both hands full?” There’s that cosmic balance between what we gain and what we lose. But it sounds like you know how to handle it, Jason: smile, remember, and keep laughing 😃

Thank you, Michael.

I remember that part of Henry IV… weird that it was rattling around in my brain this week, by chance.

Dear Jason,

Happy and sad anniversaries my friend! The big 19!

I love this: "I’ve noticed the two anniversaries have started keeping each other company."

Glad we could have a celebratory lunch! Thank you for sharing, friend.

Love

Myq

"... It turns out grief and comedy are perfectly happy sharing a table..."

Yes, yes, and yes, all of it...beautifully written.

Thank you, Jason
