Thinking about loss today. Not of the material kind because it can be replaced. I was thinking loss, whether it be human or animal, hurts like hell. Picking up the pieces and moving on isn't as easy as some think. Sometimes the pain of loss never goes away. I'm talking like decades later. One simple memory, one short conversation and all the pain comes flooding back. Wondering how many of us mask that pain. We continue our day to day living and sometimes take for granted life in itself.
