A friend of mine lost her mom and her dad last year to cancer. Tonight she had a celebration of life for them. It was a party with karaoke and food and drinks. There were family photos and flowers and balloons. And lots of family. I’m grateful to have been invited and to see a family honor their loved ones, not with tears, but with music and rejoicing.
When I go, I want a party. Maybe a craft project. Definitely balloons and cake. And glitter. Lots of glitter.
