In yesterday's mail: Galleys for my dear friend Jayne Anne Phillips' much-anticipated new novel, Lark & Termite. Proof pages for my own Nothing but Ghosts.

On yesterday's phone: utterly endearing text messages from my kid.

In yesterday's sky: an infinity of blue.

Today we honor losses by living forward. By loving out loud. By moving past disappointment, by yielding to the vibrant, by ushering in compassion, by recognizing need.

I love how you've phrased that. Honoring the losses by living forward. This is terrific.

I'm looking forward to when my kids text me. I think.

"Honoring the losses by living forward." This is so beautifully said Beth. Enjoy your day...look to the good that comes your way, enjoy the goodness in a moment of peace that comes your way, love the stillness of the peace and breathe with joy.y
