Life After O

I watch every Oprah show now from the edge of my seat.  Things seem different.  Her attitude is carefree and her speech is less processed.  Today we learned more about food and where it comes from.  It's happy ending was a half price deal...ahhh : )  I try not to think about a year from now when she is gone.  I have spent decades of my life (nearly) watching her, learning new things, thinking more about the world and all it's places.  She is like the mother I never had....she tells me how to live better, love better and be better.  She shows me how to pay down credit cards and how to exercise.  I push down the growing fear.  What am I going to do without her?  I am not being dramatic I promise you.  I cannot think of any other human being that has inspired me like she has from my cluttered closet to my charities she is in my heart and mind and soul.  It saddens me that I have no one to take her place when she is gone.  Gotta go find a tissue....
