This is beautiful, I often think about how everything seemed to be better when I was a kid. This line- “The magic comes from walking the road, not reaching the end,” really let me put my childhood in perspective and made me see that there was a certain type of beauty in the good parts and the bad parts.

This comes on a good day. Today is my mom’s birthday (though she’s been dead for almost 2 years). I’m always thinking how I wish I could go back to my childhood days and live them again. But we can’t, and so we must go on.

Everything that happened with her was a subtle or overt gift. And I think you have the right idea; the best way to honor is to keep going and make use of the energy she gifted you with. On an indirectly related note: Great job on the sample chapters, Bobby!
