428: we put stuff on our heads

He was a handsome fella, my brother Michael:

I realized in Bikram class this morning that today is his birthday. Would have been 41.

I imagine that someday when I think of him I won't always think "You stupid fucker jerk."

Eventually.

I was looking at pics of him on his memorial site and laughed out loud when I saw this one:

Remind you of anyone you know? Someone who is always putting stuff on their head?

If you are the praying sort, a little love sent to my mom and dad would be appreciated.

xo,

melissa

Speaking from experience, I can say you will indeed someday not think of him in those terms. It may take years, but you will one day wake up and realize his last act did not define him, nor is it the first thing you remember when you think of him. All of my most comforting thoughts go out to you and your family.
