Responses to your Condolences

Thanks.
I appreciate your kind words.
He was in pain; it’s over now.
It’s for the best.
It’s no big deal.
He’s in a better place.
He was old.
He was weak.
His suffering is over.
His whining is over
so MY suffering is over.

It’s cool.
He was ready to go.
He was unhappy.
He wasn’t looking forward to the winter
and the ice
and the Christmas Carols.
He was done with the day to day
and is probably at peace.
He was ugly
and we don’t need to look at him scowling
anymore.

It was pretty quick.
It was painless.
It was as perfect an end
as you can ask for.
Yeh, it’s a shock
but the muffin basket you brought
makes it ALL worth it.

Thanks for coming
and sharing your words
and thoughts
and advice
and
thanks.
It’s over now.
