Relief she is with you today..

I was 19 when my bff brother took his life one August night. A most kind & funny & gentle person, in the middle of the night, loaded a single shot in the 22 rifel, walked 1/2 mile from the house, sat down under the starry summer night sky & leaned the gun to his right temple & pulled the trigger.

He was 17.
40 yrs later that shocking moment in time stands still for those who could never step past the loss & his agony.
Like a pebble tossed in a still pool, the ripples never stop.

The whole event is everlasting tragedy with no one to blame, & no way to resolve it.
It just sucks.

Hugs to you & your dearest.
Peace🍃
