And time marches on....

Tomorrow marks a year since our beloved Stephen passed away.

Amazing really. This time last year we were all blissfully unaware that anything was about to happen. And time stomps all over everything, yet somehow manages to leave some people behind. For most of us, every now and then it will always be March 15th.

And yet, since then - some wonderful things have happened. And now, you can't help feeling slightly breathless when you notice the budding blossom on the trees, the knowledge that the horrible, long and hard work winter is nearly behind us.

If today was a film, then this song would play at the end. Please, if you have a little bit of time, click* the link and listen, even if you've heard it a million times before.

A song so sad and fleeting, yet at the same time so completely about living in the moment.

***

Saturday sun came early one morning
In a sky so clear and blue
Saturday sun came without warning
So no-one knew what to do
Saturday sun brought people and faces
That didn't seem much in their day
But when I remembered those people and places
They were really too good in their way
In their way
In their way
Saturday sun won't come and see me today

Think about stories with reason and rhyme
Circling through your brain
And think about people in their season and time
Returning again and again
And again
And again
but Saturday's sun has turned to Sunday's rain
