Because, I’ll never forget

 

My home county is cooler than your home county.

It has been said, ‘time heals all wounds.’ I do not agree. The wounds remain. In time, the mind, protecting its sanity, covers them with scar tissue and the pain lessens. But it is never gone.
– Rose Kennedy

It’s a funny thing. I wasn’t going to post on this today. But then there’s this strange sense of guilt if I don’t acknowledge it.

I lost my Dad 36 years ago today. I’ll never really get over it.

At least, I hope not.
