Like Snowflakes

I am not the world's biggest expert on death but I have made this trek for this purpose more times than...well, than is strictly decent. As I packed up my snacks and charged my music and laid out my clothes and printed my directions it all felt so...odd. Despite the fact I wasn't thick as thieves with my cousin and that I hadn't seen her for a years it feels surreal to be packing to go to her funeral.

This won't be my last trek but I'm continually reminded it will be the last one that's just like this.
