2/17/11

My Aunt Carla Cannon died early this morning. I am sad. My heart hurts and the grief is thick. But I feel so grateful that I had Carla in my life. Oh how I love her!
These quotes were found in one of my Aunt's journals and my Mom emailed them a couple days ago in an email to the family. They touched Carla at some point in her life, and now the touch and comfort me. Here are a few I loved...

Plutarch "A pleasant and happy life does not come from external

things; man draws from within himself, as from a spring, pleasure and

joy."

by Kahlil Gibran
"Everyone has experienced that truth: that love, like a running brook,
is disregarded, taken for granted; but when the brook freezes over,
then people begin to remember how it was when it ran, and they want it
to run again."

"We live in deeds, not years

In thoughts, not breaths

In feeling, not in figures on a dial

We should count time by heart throbs."

By Sir James Barrie

"God bave us our memories so that we might have our roses in December."

I am really lucky. I have lots of pretty, smart, funny, cool, interesting, sweet, stylish, girlfriends.

So fun to see some of them in SLC this weekend.

Jen and I were in UT last weekend and we managed to get out with our sisters and Mom and Kenyon too! We went to dinner at the Dodo. Great food but the desserts, oh the desserts! I'll take a slice of that apple pie Everyday.

So grateful for any chance I get to be with family. Love them lots.
