reflection

This was a very unpleasant month eight years ago. My son was murdered, his birthday was in nine more days, I was in and out of court each week with that matter, there was the viewing, the burial, his niece's birthday party usually attended, my birthday he never forgot, and on and on for two years until January 02 when the murderer plea bargained with the district attorney.

I have been comforted by the Lord and plan to pass it on. I reflect, but now instead of crying and feeling all of the pain again I changed my focus. I don't honor his death but I do celebrate his life lived and the fact that nothing separates me from the love we shared. We will be together again, I'm so glad he is saved. I also have loved ones around me that want my love. I have two loved ones that choose to be away but I just want happiness for them. It's not about me. And that is what true love is all about. Thank you Lord for the time I had to spend with all of my children and grandchildren. What more could a person want in life? The less you want. the more you feel you have. I am blessed.
