Years ago, in the month after my father passed away, I was on a city bus. Grief had been dogging me all morning, and finally a sudden wave of emotion engulfed me. I found I had to get off the bus. I walked to a nearby park and looked at some beautiful scenery. I don't remember how long I lingered, but I finally forced myself back on another bus and continued sadly to my destination.

I was late, and felt bad about being late, but I can't imagine I could have made it at all without getting off the bus.

That's all I can say about getting through those hours; I just don't know.
