I was driving back from Jericho tonight.. it was snowing hard, it was dark I realized as I turned down one of the long dark runs on that road that I wasn’t sad at all. … I wasn’t in a particularly good mood. In fact, . .. I was preoccupied, as I often am, with work stuff..I was frustrated about a project I was working on.. I was even worrying a bit about a talk I had to finish .. but nowhere in there was a speck of sad. Now that might not sound like much.. but for the past four years.. being alone in a car at night meant being sad.. .. a deep kind of physical sad.. so much so that I took it for granted.. like a sore tooth, It was always there.. I just lived with it.. It was such a strange thing to suddenly notice…. Not sure what it means.. I’ probably giving it too much thought already…
so I’ll stop here..
nite all, nite sam

John: I’m so glad to hear that you weren’t sad while driving alone last night. This is a significant milestone in your grieving process. Thanks for sharing this great news.
I so look forward to the day I feel the same in the car…I’m glad you’re finding the peace.
