Stay Positive

It's been a little more than a week since Dom passed away.

I miss him tremendously and there aren't many times that when I start that sentiment, it quickly leads to welling of tears in my eyes...

That's not to say that I can't be positive.  I intended to write a few thoughts about how the actions of others - especially when those actions are negative - remind me to be positive.  This is part of the legacy of Dominic that I want to emphasize; not so much as it's how he was as much as it was how I tried to be to show him about choices in our reactions to others.  The other thought that swirls about when I look at the title is that as we go about our lives and have to deal with reminders of Dominic's recent passing, it's important to stay positive.  I'm thankful that Sweetie (Susan) is taking care of canceling Dominic's telephone service.  We bought him a new iPhone for Christmas, which he thought was the best gift ever.  Now we're faced with canceling his service, adding to the complexity, we gave his iPhone to his Aunt, who had just had her stolen hours after Dom's passing.

Sweetie is doing a great job with at&t and I'm grateful.  There is a lot to be positive about, even when there's sadness.
