the flowers, cross, stuffed teddy bear or whatever items are placed where a tragedy occurred.

I walk an awful lot in two major cities and see many of these. I've been passing one that is constantly updated, not that long ago with a heart of white roses. Today I saw a beautiful spring bouquet there, along with a flower spray that had been left previously. An adorable card was attached to each and, though I felt as if I was invading someone's privacy, I read both. Each was addressed to what I believe was a young girl (she spelled her name in a trendy way with two ee's instead of an ey.) Well, I just burst our crying. One said how much she was missed and the other said "Happy Birthday", both signed by her family members.

No way could I fathom the emotional burdens many individuals must carry through their lives.
