A break-up

We just received word that a couple we have been friends with over some years has broken up. (They've been living out of the country so we haven't seen them in a long time.)

Apparently this is far beyond the various differences that crop up as a relationship changes over time.

So sad.

It makes you feel helpless.

I had their picture on my office wall for almost 10 years, frozen in wave-at-the-camera smiles, sitting in the tropic sun on a cruise ship. That state of perpetual happiness is the way they are frozen in my memory. I am in denial.

I was in your office Bob during an aircheck and gazed at that photo myself many times and feel your loss as well.
