Devin Ruth, I turn 31 in three days. I've been so busy that I forgot my own birthday! Someone reminded me and now I can't believe I'm so ill prepared. Last year, I couldn't accept turning thirty without you as my witness. Maybe 31 will be easier on me. It's strange, but my own birthday bothers me more than anything now. I hate that time is going on without you. I hate that it makes me sad and depressed 'cause I just feel weak and I know you don't want me to be depressed. Hell, We fought that battle long enough. It's not a written devin rule or anything, but i know you wouldn't want me crying on my birthday. So I'm going to try to keep you with me as I always do. And if some tears fall, know that it's cause I miss you and I'm forgetting that you're still here in your own way-in my head, in pictures, in spirit.

I took you with me to New Orleans. (I'm not the only one who knows you would have fallen in love with the crescent city.) I took you with me to Costa Rica last summer. And, Oh, we're going again in June by the way.

Sometimes, the kids at school make me laugh so hard I have to regain composure. When they do disgusting things with their bugars I also think of you. You'd love Max- he's five and lets out tremendous belches everyday after lunch in my room and always offers a quiet "excuse me" afterwards. I think you may have been reincarnated as a little blonde trouble maker named Maximus!!!!

I love you sweet girl. Wish me luck on the 23rd. I think I might wear my crown! (Yeah, you know the one!)

Some days, for no apparent reason, I remember you and the impact you had on me, in life and death, and I have to come to this page and make sure it's still up so I can see your face.

Sometimes when I think I am over your death, something or another reminds me of you and then I experience the whole grief thing all over again.

Happy Valentine's Day, Devin. You loved all the silly little holidays just like me, huh. Any reason to celebrate the ones you love. And I love you.
See you again, someday, okay?
Renée

I had a dream about you last night. I was getting dropped off at your house. You weren't ready for me. You said that your mom wasn't home but I could stay. You were really excited about the future. You said that you found 7 acres of land...you were getting ready for something. I told you that I missed you. I woke up crying. I miss you. I wish I had seen you more often.

I saw a girl today in the mall that looked like you. I kept looking at her and looking at her and pretending it was you. My mind took over and I was certain that she even moved like you. I could hear your voice and I didn't want the girl to walk away. I can't grasp that you are gone. That was not the first time I saw you in the mall... I will never forget you, Devin, and your memory is not fading...
Rhonda

Little girl gone..You were so tiny..spindley little legs, serious face, pixie hair, blue blue eyes and then you would smile and it was like the sun breaking through on a cloudy day.
I shout inside ...WHY?WHY? and I get no answer.
I keep your phone number in my phone as if I can just call you up. I want to call it and see if someone answers but I'm afraid to; it's not going to be you; but I refuse to delete it, as if deleting it will delete a memory of you.
I hate it that you are gone and I am powerless to do anything about it. I felt frozen yesterday, not moving from my bed. Thinking if I didn't move time would stand still and you would be alive and it would all be a dream. I have to keep telling myself this is the reality I have to live with.
What would you be doing today if you were alive? I dream up different scenarios for you--all with you laughing and having a good time. That doesn't make me dealing with your death well, does it? I deal with other peoples' deaths every day. I tell people that there loved ones are gone, I hold their hands and hug them as they shake and cry, and yet I don't want to face the death of you. I don't think Elizabeth Kubler Ross would be too proud of my progress thrugh the stages of grieving. I haven't reached acceptance.
I love you, Aund Rhonda

i could've had a beautiful day, but instead i had an amazingly complex wonderfully engaging challegingly gorgeous captivatingly memorable day.
i appreciate your part - not only in the bittersweet of it all, but in the ALL of it ALL!

Hey Devin... I was just remembering the time we stayed up all night working on our evil Christmas song. And the time we played leap frog during the peace rally and all the kids joined in. Fort Worth is really different without your physical presence. We all miss you a bunch.

I still miss you. But I would of never gone to New Orleans without you and now to other places where I can learn and teach and grow. I would probably still be living in my bubble of a life in Fort Worth with my bike riding vegan friends at the vegan place. This has been harder but it's been good. I admit I tried to emulate you at first, to keep your memory alive to me, before I realized I didnt have to do that. Ive also been giving away more and more of the things you gave me because I dont need to hold on to things, you are always in my heart and you always will be. I just needed to say I love you and thank you for all the times you reminded me that I am good and loved.

After recently moving, I finally gathered all the pictures I shared with Devin and scanned them. I made the following movie and would like to share these moments with anyone who cares to see them. I apologize for the poor production and I'm sure Devin would gag if she knew I created something with so much cheddar. This is for you Devin.

It's scrapbooking time at my house... I found some pictures of you from CTA. You were such a vivacious leader.
I look forward to seeing you in heaven!

I was thinking about you the other day. It was weird because I could here your voice. I was remembering driving around with you and my sister. You were pointing out a building in Keene. You said, "This is where I was conceived." It made me laugh. It had been too long since I had last seen you. I miss you. I had been missing you though. Man, you impacted so many people. I'm so proud that I was one of those people.

I miss you so much, Devin. Especially since I just saw your favorite movie for the first time last night. Harold and Maude. Maude reminds me so much of you. I still don't get it why so many hurtful people get to live and you had to die. I wish you could have seen New Orleans cause I know you would of loved it here. You are always in my heart.
Kisha

It was mom's birthday on the 14th...it's weird not to celebrate that date anymore. I miss her so much! Things are happening and I want to talk to her.
It's scary because I need her so much!

Apr 28 2008 1:23 AM

i listened to "sounds familiar" by the weakerthans today.

"The first chapters of lives almost made us give up altogether. Pushed towards tired forms of self immolation that seemed so original. I must, we must never stop watching the sky with our hands in our pockets, stop peering in windows when we know doors are shut. Stop yelling small stories and bad jokes and sorrows, and my voice will scratch to yell many more, but before I spill the things I mean to hide away, or gouge my eyes with platitudes of sentiment, I'll drown the urge for permanence and certainty; crouch down and scrawl my name with yours in wet cement."

i thought about the time you showed me this song in your truck. your truck under the trees. i hope you are proud of me. everything is a puzzle piece. i am trying to put them together. i am trying to do good. today was very hard to do that. i am still trying. i hope i look like a baby redwood breaking through concrete instead of a flower. i tell people about you. i am glad we're friends.

Today I was cleaning out my inbox of text messages and the last one I came across was 3 words from you. "I appreciate you." It surprised me. I didn't remember it was there. But I remember getting it now. I'm sure we hadn't talked in a while and you had thought of me and just wanted me to know. You were so good at that, appreciating people. I hope I let you know how much I appreciated you back.
There's so much change in my life right now. It's so hard to sort the bad from the good. I wish I could talk to you about it. I'm having one of those moments where the unfairness of your absense feels so intense.

Devin you taught me that another beauty is possibly the highest type of all. You had it and it still lives on. Beauty of spirit, as revealed by the expression on the face of a human being. By the twinkle in the eye, by the smile on the lips.... This is the greatest beauty we will ever see. My friend I have come to this page so many times and wanted to write something and never felt that I had the right words... but you would have told me write anyway. You would have told me to say what I need to say and cry again as the ache of missing you in this moment renews itself. I miss you so much.
Karmyn

devin,it's so hard for me to accept this kind of finality. i look at your pics, and I see you and I remember you so vividly. the way you move and talk and gesture. i remember when we sang oldies on the long bus ride from washington. I remember when andrew played a song for us on the piano and my eyes were watering from the emotion in the song and i looked over at you and you were crying too, and we both started laughing at each other, i remember when you pretended to be the homeless chicken lady on a school trip and ran after people with a blanket on you and squawked like a chicken- i laughed and laughed! we laughed so much together. I hate this finality, i hate that i can't see you again and catch up in a coffee shop like i just saw you yesterday. time passed by ,but we stayed the same, always comfortable- always friends, laughing over coffee. i dug through old pics of you the other day, sorting them out and staring at each one. you are there, right there. you have been in my thoughts a lot lately, and i don't know if i have dealt with your passing. i don't know how to deal with it. anyway, i know you wouldn't want me or anyone else crying and carrying on, so i'll try and stop now. i'll try and be a good person and love and laugh and i won't forget you. ever.
