365 Days of Gratitude - Day 43

My uncle passed away yesterday. Death always leads me to a reflective place.

To me he was my 'Big Friend'. A silly name created by a little girl who fell madly for her big, tall uncle. Although we lived on opposite sides of the Atlantic Ocean I am grateful for the time I did spend with him. Whether sailing in the North Sea, walking the dunes, sitting in the garden, or in later years chatting via skype, I was always captivated by his stories. 

Sending much love to my cousin Klara. You will be missed and always loved my Big Friend.

Feeling grateful,
Louise
