Five years ago we woke to the news that a young, dear cousin had died in her sleep. That cold shock to the heart is mirrored today in the icy sky dripping the first winter chill on the green of summer. Tomorrow the cold will have dimmed the green landscape and the quieter grays will take over. No wonder we love the cozy, silly grin of glowing pumpkin faces and crazy costumes. Life is short indeed and we do the best we can to love every day.
