Make 2013 my finest year yet (read all 2 entries…)
Always the dark before the light

In the moment of light, when my daughter came home, an hour of darkness came – A sadness from deep inside, where tears flowed and I couldn’t stop or source the depth of sorrow. It was one of great loss, in feeling lost, even if momentarily, feeling unloved, unwanted and as a failure. How can these things come in such a fleeting way when the light is around the corner? And yet, there it was.

A dark hour of sorrow.

Does this ground us? Is that why these moments come – to remind us of our humanity? Our feelings that lie just below the surface…. ow.



tell my daughter - everyday - how much she means to me (read all 20 entries…)
She has been home for 24 hours...

And they have been the most comforting 24 hours of my life.

So happy to have her in my life.

So happy.

So happy.
