A Virtual Moment of Silence

February 19, 2010 by FutureExpat

A couple of weeks ago, I posted that my father had just died, and how his passing has given me more urgency in making my overseas move.

This weekend, my widely scattered family has gathered to hold a memorial service. Coming from all up and down the East Coast, from Florida in the South where my husband and I live, to Vermont in the North, from Ohio to the west, and a great many points in between, we are sharing memories and stories, tears and joys, and trying to make some practical decisions as well.

Because of this, I would like my readers to join me in a virtual moment of silence. No regular blog post today, just a few minutes to reflect on what’s really important in this life.

Thanks for your understanding.
