And then there was one
just me
Mama went home 20 years ago to be with God my brother went home 7 years ago to be with God and my dad when home 19 days ago to be with God
What Now?
yes life Must Go On
but does it have to include me
I suppose so now I'm free
what a joke on me
free from what certainly not emptiness our sorrow not pain our grief the only difference is that this is today and tomorrow will be tomorrow
freedom from nothing
is what I have not that I'm feeling ungrateful to be alive but when those who love the most die and the day after and the day after that and today and tomorrow and the next day and the next day
you tell yourself to be strong and that your loved ones are at peace and they're in a better place but that does not suffice and that does not stop the tears from streaming down my face and yes I do believe that to be absent in the body is to be present with the Lord
What Now?
