I know a darkness that's darker than cold
A wind that blows as cold as it gets
Blew out the light in my soul'

CCCXXXVII


A year ago this was vigil day 6. I was on a road trip to my best friend's wedding with two good friends and the love of my life.  Happy Anniversary guys.

The quote I used that day seems more appropriate than ever:

The ultimate meaning to which all stories refer has two faces: the continuity of life, the inevitability of death.
-Italo Calvino, If on a Winter's Night a Traveller
