When Travis passed away (21 months today) I always said I lost everything... My best friend, my husband, my protector, my provider, my kids father and my person that always stood beside me and listens to all my good, bad and indifferent days. I lost my sense of security, my ability to sleep, I gained heaps of stress, worry and depression. One day I realized how selfish I sounded.... Truly I had lost a lot BUT Travis had lost EVERYTHING. I still had my life, my children, my family, my friends and although at the time I didnt know it at the time: I have a second chance at life. This week I saw the movie Heaven is for real.... Little did I know how important that movie would play out in the new few days. I felt a peace and calm knowing how safe, happy and healthy our loved ones are. The pain they felt here both physical and mental is removed and their life has truly continued or maybe even finally started. I let that movie with a sense of calm and hope which I am so thankful for. Sadly just a day later a good friend let this world leaving behind his wife, his kids, his family and a huge group or friends who loved him very dearly. Then today I awoke to news that my Sweet Aunt Dorothy passed away. I will forever hear that one of a kind laugh, remember the way she would pinch my face as she kissed me and without fail EVERY year I would receive a bday card reminding me she loved me and was always thinking of me. In a life of electronic everything her snail mail card always made me smile. I continue to pray for the families hurt by the loss of their loved one and try to find comfort in the memories you shared, know they are still very much here watching us all. Always spend time with the people you love the most because it is the ultimate gift... You can never get it back and you never know when it will run out! Love to you all ❤️
