You'd think I'd know better

On Saturday I visited a parishioner in the hospital. She said something about dying and I said something dismissive. And then, later, I said I thought she looked good. At least then, I immediately said how much I hate it when people tell me that.

Not terribly present to others. Haven't come to terms with death yet. Can't believe I was so unconscious.

I really like this woman and don't want to lose her. I just lost a parishioner I really liked in late October. Need to find a spiritual director soon or quicker.

I wish I had bright words to say, but I don't, so I'll say, I care and I hear you.
