Missed Connections in Lexington, KY
Ur toothbrush (My house)
Is wondering if you are gone for good this time.
I am too.
But now, there is no more light in the shower. by Nadya Peek

Her Two Cents on Ur Toothbrush
There’s something about this short and simple piece that I find profoundly sad. I think it’s the thought that something so everyday as a toothbrush can carry such weight and memories about a person and their relationship. Is it better to keep the toothbrushes together, knowing that one owner is gone, or to remove it and be constantly faced with one less? I’m not really sure which is the better option…
Gentle Readers: When relationships end there are always some objects that are intentionally or accidentally left behind. A toothbrush, book, CD, or a shirt… have you ever had to deal with a “left behind” object? What was it and how did you react?
