So beautifully written. For many years, following the passing of my late husband, I would revisit the bench along the Mokelumne River where we had sat countless times. It was our place to escape the stresses of our blended family. It was also the place where he had proposed to me, the place where I said “yes”.

Karen, what a lovely memory to have. There is something calming about the water, isn't there? Peaceful and awe-inspiring as well. Our little river park provides me many hours of solace.
