Ive been posting some of my Timehop photos and posts from two years ago. Tonights photos will just stay with me. Suffice to say, its not the way Id want you to remember the most beautiful girl on the planet. For whatever reason, two years ago today, I took a picture of her and I as I laid next to my bride. She was beautiful as always. Sick? yes.... Dying?.....yes. But all my brain saw was my girl. Tired.... a little confused, but comforted to have my touch so she had it pretty much non-stop. I forgot about those pictures until a couple months ago when I ran across them on my phone, and then again tonight on Timehop. When I saw them for the first time after so long, the only thing I could think was, Oh my god..... she was so, so sick. But thats not what she looked like. She was sick but she didnt look that sick. How did I not see it? And it dawned on me how the brain protects us from ourselves sometimes. In my mind, she was still my sweet sleepy bride. I knew she was dying but she was still gorgeous. Still needed me..... Still at any moment ready to roll over and whisper sleepily, Mornin punkin. I couldnt see the body that cancer had ravaged or even the spirit that had been taken. I just saw Angie..... the girl I fell in love with. . So tonight..... for those that are following, tonights post Ill just ask you remember her as YOU remember her. Not as sick Angie.... She hated sick Angie. Remember her as full of life and charisma... a blistering wit..... wildly inappropriate at times with her humor but devastatingly funny, GORGEOUS, and most importantly, completely in love with me and knowing she was absolutely adored. Thats how I want you to remember my girl tonight. Just how shed want to be remembered. Thanks for indulging me tonight.
