Except for a few years early in childhood, I have never liked Halloween. The combination of darkness and creepiness makes my skin crawl.
And now, this side of child loss it makes me angry.

Halloween one year ago our son suddenly departed from us. I had talked to him 15 minutes prior. Most of the time it still does not ring as truth and the silence is deafening surrounding it.
Our town does trick or treat the Sunday prior so it has not ruined that for my grandchildren. People do not even know what they are celebrating. I was ignorant of it too. But I am now forever aware.
