The Boyz are being shipped home on Monday June 26. Why it has taken them over a month since they were killed to ship them home is beyond me, but the families & myself are ready to proceed with the funerals and I will be having my own memorial alone with them at the Rock sometime in July.
I would love to go to each of their funerals as I did with Mark, but unfortunatley they are being held on the same day in 3 different states so it is an impossibility. I am still talking with T & J's family who wants me to come to Boston to be there when their ashes are blessed...Im still debating...I think I will end up not going. I cant choose favorites between them all. M's funeral is in FL and D's is in NY...while I was closest to T (after Mark) I still feel guilty as hell for choosing him over the others.
I think my memorial with the crazy drive through all the weird towns and hiking one last time to the top of Angel Glacier and then finally hiking down and into Maligne Canyon is the most fitting tribute I can do for all of them. I have decided to keep a little part of all their ashes. I am going to make a 5 peice heart shaped locket which I can keep their ashes in and wear to keep them with me all the time. A silver craftsman, who happens to be a great friend of mine, is creating it as we speak. *smiles softly*
Consult not your fears but your hopes and your dreams. Think not about your frustrations, but about your unfulfilled potential. Concern yourself not with what you tried and failed in, but with what is still possible for you to do.
Freedom is knowing that in every moment you have a choice. Limitation is not exercising that choice. Every time you require a definition you acquire a limitation.
