One foot...

I haven't posted in a long time. Mainly because when I originally intended to start this blog, it was to talk about the grieving process regarding my mom's death. After a while, as many of you know who have lost a loved one, the calls stop, the visits become less frequent, the texts are further apart...it is no longer the job of friends and family to help you with your grief...you have yourself to rely on and that can be very tough...I think this is why when I know that someone has lost a family member or friend...I always make it a point to tell them that I'll be thinking of them on a random Tuesday...because those days are sometimes the toughest. When you least expect it...

I have to say I have been very fortunate in life...I have a loving family, a great support network, a wonderful boyfriend...and I got to spend 28 years with a mother who I was very close to and who was my best friend. Sometimes, you just have to put one foot in front of the other and keep moving...and you don't know where you are going...but you know that you have your faith, the love of others...and the hope that this will all unfold the way it should...
