Remember to Laugh

Dear Ralph,

I miss you. You were a wonderful husband and even better father and Emily misses you even more than I do. It’s been 23 years, 11 months and 15 days since you were killed in that car wreck and sometimes it feels like yesterday.

I really regret that I didn’t laugh at all your jokes. You’d try to crack me up when we were arguing, when I was frustrated by life and bills and all the stupid little things that made me mad. You’d play the fool for me and I would withhold my laughter to punish you because of my bad mood. I should have laughed. I’m sorry.

Love forever,

Me

I had a whole group of friends I cut off after a pretty jarring experience in my life, and though I think of them at times with fondness, I really don't see how things would have worked out had we stayed friends.

I think we always regret not telling the deceased things because the opportunity is gone forever, but I try never to withhold from the living.

I tend to be too blunt, so maybe a "things better left unsaid" website would be better for me.
