Someone said once to me: “The past runs fast… It is just one step behind you!”.
So true and it is always there to remind you of things that happened.
Today I have to gather all the documents that are needed for the taxes over the few months of last year that my mother was alive (she died begin April). I have all these documents nicely ordered, so it is not a lot of work to do. But it makes you think back on things and stand still for a moment. Specially because with documents of my mother, the documents concerning the passing away from my father are stored together.
Yes, the past runs fast… and of course there is still some sadness and that is not a bad thing.
