You're right Larry, somehow today was harder. It rained here a steady, drenching nonstop rain, all day. My daughter says rain is heaven's tears. I looked at the windshield, the puddles and streams running down the streets and then tried to focus on trying to see each droplet. They came so fast and there were so many, one on top of the other, too many,too fast... But when you try to look at them individually, I thought...these are the tears of all of us. Millions, millions of tears in unison, all mourning together for the same reason. And then it was somehow comforting, a common unity, a common pain, and then wonder at all of the millions and millions precious drops, each one representing someone's pure and wondrous love for Mickey. To be loved like that..now that's something!
