This Sunday would have been Alex’s 25th birthday and I've been thinking about him a lot lately, feeling very nostalgic. I’ll be doing something completely unrelated to him and all of a sudden a memory will pop into my head. Or someone will walk by me and the body lotion they used will take me back to summer days spent together in MontrĂ©al. A song will come on the radio that he used to love, a stranger walking by will have his walk, a show he used to watch will come up on my Netflix homepage- everything has been coming back to him.

I guess this is my little birthday tribute to him- I wish there could be more, I wish that memories weren't all that's left ... but I'm grateful that each and every memory is a good one.
