Right?! Couldn't have just been a normal rain. It had to be...
WAIT FOR ITTT...
...
A T-STORM!!
I was half laughing/half crying riding to the shop when the sky opened up. I screamed out loud in the most loving way possible "YOU MOTHERFUCKERRRR!!!!" 'cause it felt like a hilarious joke.
Charlie's and my ol' roomie from college, Antonio, gave me this piece of solace:
The people in our lives are always at some distance. We have to make plans and call and visit and travel to bring our love and connection closer. It requires logistics and effort to be with others. But when they die, they’re instantly with us—in our hearts and memories—closer than ever and for the rest of our lives.
Which is so true. My therapist also told me that grief is a reflection of how much you loved that person. It's essentially the yin to that yang. That it wouldn't hurt the way it hurts without an equal amount of love for them in the opposite direction. Both of these sentiments have been helpful for me... so I hope they'll be helpful for y'all too.

Antonio Alvendia? I know you guys are great friends but didn't know he was your roommate. If different Antonio then disregard it. LOL
Also, solid advice from the therapist. Noted.

Different Antonio! Antonio Alvendia did reach out to me about Tyler, which was awfully sweet of him.

These are from a random night that I came o'er to rip around in the Hako.
It is wild to me how all of these moments feel so significant now.
SO special.
I love this photo so much that it brings tears to my eyes.
