We often fail to recognise how much of an impact someone has on our lives, until they leave or we lose them, particularly on special occasions or when what was a regular routine gets broken. So what does 2 years without you bring? Peace at last? Acceptance? Not yet, but memories bring a smile more often than tears and there are suspicions that when things randomly fall off shelves, or cats are spooked for no reason, that you are playing silly buggers with us, which usually draws a grin and a good natured comment. The truth is, we miss you as much as ever, but with time has come an ability to adjust to a world that is emptier without you, but that is still full of the things you brought into it.
