nothing lasts forever

this is another page for my 52 stories project.
i tried it once a year ago, it was easier today.

Journaling: I woke up this morning feeling out of sorts. I decided to look through your recipes and make something. I hadnt handled these pages in over eleven years, as they had been in storage. I sat and looked at all the recipes your hand had lovingly written out for me. Touching them was like touching you. I decided to make Passover eggs. I had been to the market the day before and the man in produce was putting out a fresh batch of onions. I asked him for the extra skins thinking how lucky I was to be there at that time. As I lay the last egg in the pot, Erin called. She told me you had died. I covered the eggs for the long twelve hour cooking process, sat down and cried. Nothing lasts forever, you used to say. To which I would respond, except you. I guess we were both right. You are no longer with me in some ways, but in others you will live on forever. Journaled March 16, 2011.

Thanks for looking :)
Beautiful, memorable, poignant and moving... such rich memories... I love the luminescence of this page. An extraordinary tribute.
 
Adryane, I so love the way you tell a story! I could read this time and again. Your words and soft image say so much about the sweet relationship. Thinking of you friend, as this anniversary approaches. Wish we could sit down with a cup of tea and I could hear all about this wonderful woman.
 
oh, at a loss for works...what this hobby/passion is all about, from the heart...beautiful!
 
i love it when our art and our real life become so close.
Love your heart-touching journaling and the scanned recipe.
 
OMG- Adryane - this is so touching, brought tears to my eyes and a lump in my throat. Very beautiful.
