Bittersweet

My cousin came home from some 'stan' place. It was good to see him safe at home. He came home early because his brother-in-law passed away in a car accident. Ugh, my heart goes out to them. It's nice to have my cousin home. But knowing why he is here makes it a bittersweet return. When he got off the plane everyone was waiting to greet him. He mourned with her family first, was welcomed home by my family and finally the guard thanked him for his service overseas. So many things are swirled with good and bad. There is good in everything. Sometimes it is just hard to focus on that good because the bad is staring you right in the face. I hope they find the strength to keep moving to find the good.
