Mitra Junam,

Here we are a full year since you have left us-and I still can't believe it...

As I relive the last Tuesday that I spent with you I really think that you knew... Mimi Junam, I think I was just trying to protect myself from the biggest blow of my life- On Wednesday I was still in denial, I had not given up on you and I still thought that you would come back and recover just like all those other times. But soon my denial turned into total numbness with that everlasting image of your last breath in my arms. 

Mimi Jun, I want to replace all these images with the many good memories I have with you. Mimi, You were so radiant and so full of life, with such elegance, style, and grace. You were talented in so many ways. You were such a capable and successful businesswoman, and an exceptional homemaker. Oh, what a wonderful and loving wife, mother, grandmother, daughter, and sister. 

Mimi Jun, I want to hold on to the belief that you are in a " better place", wherever that place may be. As long as you are pain-free and at peace I will accept this void in my life, until we meet again. 

Mimi Junam, azizeh delam, khahareh azizam - So for now - and for all that was left unsaid; goodbye my love, goodbye.

I will always and forever "remember you".

Rhouhat shadd azizam.

"Your Body is away from me

But there is a window from my heart to yours.

From this window, like the moon

I keep sending news secretly."

Molana Rumi

You are always with me...
