Evil and Goodness

Evil is contagious, so be cautious; but so is goodness, so take heart.

Anno Domini

How does one deal with life after death? I don't mean passing onto the other side, I mean living again after your loved one dies. The best of our family came alive after my mom died. We were the most vulnerable and the closest we had been ever. The best of what we brought to the table as adult siblings and as relatives came about. But, when all the pomp and circumstance of the wake and funeral subsided, we went back to work, we went back to routines. I just checked my phone I realized I missed a call from my dad at 6:03, it's 11:21am now, I've got to go to bed I've got work tomorrow. I'll die if I don't get some sleep.
