it's raining today. since you died, every time it rains i think it is you crying. using the drops of water to reach down and let me know you are somewhere up there. it gives me pause, and like it or not, forces me to grieve my loss of you. i am reminded of your burial. the sky was grey and pouring until 2 minutes before we started the ceremony. then the weather suddenly broke, sun came out, and we were all able to be there with you and return your ashes to the earth. it was kind of funny how they floated in the water-filled hole in the ground. right next to dad's remains. i imagine you are happy to be there with him.
the sky is clearing once again. time to scoot on. but i bring you with me in my heart. miss you, brother.
love you, Jeff
