Good morning my DU family,
As my trip to see my friend Rory nears, (I leave Friday morning), I find myself feeling such a range of emotions. From joy at specific memories, to relief that I can again speak to him daily, to the range of pain and loss that I'm preparing for as I make this visit the very best possible with words and deed.
Please give us a day filled with opportunities to honor those near us with presence, with honesty, and with an open heart so that our celebration of them shall always be in process.
Love, John

Kick in to the DU tip jar?
This week we're running a special pop-up mini fund drive. From Monday through Friday we're going ad-free for all registered members, and we're asking you to kick in to the DU tip jar to support the site and keep us financially healthy.
As a bonus, making a contribution will allow you to leave kudos for another DU member, and at the end of the week we'll recognize the DUers who you think make this community great.
