She Is Laughing Too

It took him a long time to laugh after she was gone even once the initial sadness faded. He thought it would be disrespectful. He thought her memory would be jaded… But then in the midst of his sadness he remembered her laugh one day and he knew how sad it would make her feel If her death took his laugh away. Remembering her laugh made him realize how by her memory he is blessed how finding joy and laughter without her doesn’t mean he misses her less. So today he loves to laugh he no longer feels blue… for he knows when he is laughing… somewhere…. she is laughing too.
