There isn’t much to this post, hence why I likely held off on publishing it. It’s funny how it means so much more now, thinking about how wonderful it was when I could actually text him. It prompted me to look back through our messages to find that 3/1/20 text. My phone only goes back to 2021, but what a joy to scroll through and see all the silly selfies Brendan sent. One of which is attached here. Even after writing this, I looked at that picture, and my instinct was to send it back to him and say, “Hey, do you realize that this was a great picture of you?” It’s interesting how your mind can know something, but your heart tells you otherwise. Cognitively, I understand that he is gone, but my heart keeps him alive—a great irony.
