I have a new blender so I make a healthy smoothie with banana, berries, protein powder and coconut water. It’s yummy! I then juice a whole bag of mandarin oranges. The healthy me approves. After that I’m pretty much done for the day. Fridays are always mellow as my energy level is quite low. But it’s Fri-yay and the weekend is here!

In the evening a song plays that I recognise but can’t name. I Shazam it. It is John Legend’s All of Me. It’s a beautiful song that I have heard many times before but the lyrics hit me so hard right now. They have taken on a whole new meaning. I marvel at John Legend’s gift of songwriting and the emotive power of his music. Both Susannah and I find ourselves weeping.

Grief, pain, loss. Above all else, love.
