Day 19- Everything I Have
Felt like the weight of the world was on my shoulders…
Pressure to break or retreat at every turn.
-Freedom by Anthony Hamilton
We buried my sister's ashes and her amulet (of sorts) today under this tree, as it got planted.
The official memorial for everyone else is in two days. But today was the real memorial.
Edited to add: Took me a little bit to put this in words. But for the first time since she died, I felt like things were right again. I feel like she and I were equally torn up about her death before, in different ways. But now she's actually at peace. I didn't think having a gravestone, or a place for your ashes, mattered. I believe now that it really does.
