Frequently here I harp how our ability to associate disparate things is what makes us human. Since my Rosemary died on December 9 2020, just about everything I look at, listen to, smell or remember, connects me immediately with her.
In the mailbox today was this unusually nice catalogue called Bits and Pieces. We have been getting it in the mail for many years. Rosemary and I would go over it and look for Christmas gifts for our daughters and granddaughters. I would particularly look for a Christmas-themed jigsaw puzzle as we all love to put them together during that season.
The Bits and Pieces immediately linkked to my past when my mother, father and I would put together our English castle “rompecabezas”.
There is a deep melancholy in me today as I think that all those moments will never return.
