As I release this episode of the podcast, I am remembering my dad's 86th birthday. It also marks the beginning of my mourning period leading to his death anniversary on the 24th.

As this is the third year I have had to navigate this anniversary without the words of my mother to comfort me, I try looking for other ways to keep from focusing to much on my dad's death anniversary. This year 'm trying to be inspired by others.

Joe Biden went from losing his wife and daughter just before taking office in the U.S. Senate to becoming the President of the United States. I know that we cant compare grief or grief journeys, but I find it inspiring that someone who has gone through so much, could accomplish as much as he has. Sometimes I think I could learn something from the examples set by others.
