Chocolate cake for breakfast: commemorating another year without my Dad

I wrote this last year when I forgot the cake. All the emotions are the same, as is the ritual. This morning chocolate cake was had, Hey Jude was played loudly, tears were shed. 

“Time may heal all wounds, but it leaves scars. Chocolate cake for breakfast makes those scars just a bit more tolerable.”

So heartfelt, always continue these moments.

Recently I came up to my parents 10 year anniversary of them passing in a car accident.

I was so focused on doing something personally in memoriam... One thing led to another... The day they had passed already lapsed days before. I didn't even realize it. My mind was everywhere but here.

Just like your forgotten cake, for whatever reason it hopefully helped the grieving process in one way (even if it were just to listen and let out some good emotions) like you said, it won't heal but it can be what's needed to soften the scars.

Prayers to you and your family 🙏
