    A truly tear jerking post

    I challenge you not to have either a lump in your throat, nor tear in your eye after reading this: The last post - Penmachine - Derek K. Miller

    Truly wondrous.

    Sorry, moved me enough to share it here.

    Practise makes us a little better, it doesn't make us perfect.

    What would Vedder do?

    Don't apologise Wayne.

    Thank you for giving us the chance to read that.
    The problem with rounded personalities is they don't tesselate.

                    A "good" read if you take my meaning. Whoever Derek was he was obviously a thoughtful man.

                    My thoughts will be with his family and friends.

                        When my aunty had brain cancer she was lying in the cancer ward in acute pain lapsing in and out of a coma, in one of her lucid moments as I sat holding her hand her eyes opened and she looked out of the window and there in the sky was a beautiful rainbow, she indicated that I should come closer and whispered in my ear, think of me when you see those and I will always be with you.
                        Every rainbow makes me think of my aunty even thirty years after her death, no one knows where we go when we die, buddhists believe that a rainbow indicates a soul reaching nirvana whatever happens or where we go, rainbows make me smile and remember that amazing wonderful woman who thought about how I was feeling a few short hours before she slipped away. How amazing that man thought of his family and friends and took time to say goodbye.

                            If any of you get the chance, and haven't already, read some more of his blog. He was a talented blogger indeed.

                              I'm trying to find a series of photographs of something similar - a photographer was commisioned to photograph/document the struggle of an ill person right up to the death / funeral. So moving - I'll have a look some some photogrpahy forums I'm sure I posted it on.
