Just saw The Last Song….

Serenity is the result of this journey.
Full moon in my skylight. Quiet, sad night as I contemplate the first of the holidays without my mom……

Hi Linda! Just read your blog. I know this year will be hard for all of you. Memories are wonderful but they also bring tears, some of joy and some of sadness. Does it ever get better? Maybe better isn’t the right word. Maybe, different is the right word to describe it. The only thing that I absolutely know is, that despite what has happened, life goes on. My patients and my own life experiences have taught me that. It always felt so weird to me that during my darkest hours, other things were happening around me. Night would turn into morning. My garden grew. Babies were being born. My children were getting older and taller. How could all this happen when I was so despondent? It takes a while to accept that that special person will not be around anymore. How long? I don’t really know. I will let you know when it happens to me. Cry if you have to. Laugh and don’t feel guilty about it. Keep those you love around you and always know, you are nor alone. Love to all…
