Hi R,
I went to the Cathedral again today, to add a star to their Christmas tree in memory of Steve and Chris, and in recognition of the support I've received.
Ran into Simon, who was sweeping the floor. He said that Alan wasn't there, but he was 'sure he'd love to see me.'
I've decided what I'm going to do to mark Steve's birthday, and it feels fitting.
Part of me now understands that I need to separate my faith journey (?) from my grief journey over Steve's death. I don't know whether that's possible, but...I want to move towards that.
