I must apologize for being absolutely lazy
If there was an award for the laziest blogger, I will make the nominations list
And all very non intentional
This laziness, which I had brought upon myself
As opposed to my 'talkACTIVE' appellation
Has been the creation of life events: which we all have
It has been a crazy few months in the recent past
There have been ups and downs
Highs and lows
Smiles and frowns
Months in which I have cried, laughed
Shouted, sang, screamed, dreamed and you know the rest
I do apologize more to the people who actually called me
Or emailed demanding a new blog: Guys I am here now

Its the 1st of May
I am thankful for that, please do allow me burden you however with why this is so beyond the obvious
This happens to be one of those 'dates of significance' in my life
3 years ago today, I interred my father: A man who had slaved
Just to ensure we had the best
I listened with grief to the finality of the loud thuds that accompanied each shoveled heap of sand
I wanted to reach down and drag him out of that darkness, that heat, that grave
I knew he wasn't there...He had long gone
Today however, an even scarier thing happened to me
I had begun to forget the fine details of what he looked like unconsciously
I had to "think" to remember him
I love him, I am his legacy how can it be then that I forget him?
Have I forgotten my father?
[Not so big a smiley face now]
If you've lost someone dear, please do share your experience too
Happy May everyone
