It is a beautiful day. These last days of July have a richness about them...fruit hangs on the vine and while it will be weeks more before it ripens, all seems fresh and full of promise. The morning air is mild, clouds mere vestigial wisps across the brilliant blue of the sky.
A single hummingbird, iridescent green flashing from her wings, visits the feeder near my window.
These are the sorts of things which would normally fill me with delight, evoking psalms of thanksgiving and praise..."for the beauty of the earth"...
But today, there are no psalms of joy and the beauties of the world mock my pain. Despair is my only friend. The skies should be dark and glowering, winds rushing, knifelike with their sharp chill. That would fit my mood, not this lavender scented, birdsong filled, shining glory. But I am not so lucky. I must bear my sadness even as the forces of all that is good and beautiful and life-giving surrounds me with a big cosmic "neener neener".
It was supposed to be me, dammit!

My condolences, LT.
Thank you, SCG. (sniff)
I thought of you immediately upon seeing that story.
I am impressed at how well you're taking the news.
Well, I guess...if you consider rending my clothes, beating my breast and sitting on a dungheap with ashes in my hair "taking it well".
For goodness sake woman. Don't you get PEOPLE magazine? I have known for months there was "someone."
Of course I don't read People, Rosie. I haven't been to the dentist for months and besides, I didn't care what the magazines said. Oh, they can hint and gossip...they never knew the real story, they never knew that he and I were destined.
Of course, neither did he, but that's just quibbling.
Okay, that whole lovely description of July was beautiful, but clearly written by someone who does not live on the muggy, hot, dreadful Eastern Seaboard.
As for Steve, I'm sorry ... I know how you feel, actually.
He didn't marry Belinda did he??.
Whew!..Oh yeah,.Condolences,.Yada,yada..
Red: Well, yeah, we don't have the humidity here. Although, frankly, the heaviness of humidity would be more fitting for my mood.
No, Sling, he didn't. He broke only my heart.
He's such a jerk for doing this to you.
HA! Get it? "Jerk?" HA!
Why is no one else laughing?
Actually that did make me laugh but it's after midnight and technically the next day. But delayed laughter is almost as good. Though to be fair, we none of us should be laughing when such delicate matters of the heart have so recently been rendered moo.
awwwwwww
"I'm picking out a thermos for...you...a very special...sniff...ther...sob...mos....for..y..." I can't...I can't do it...
I know...it's so unfair, isn't it? And as much as I had hoped it would be me someday, I was willing to give up that dream and let you have him. And now he's crushed both our dreams. Sob!
