Chin up :O)

Lynn, here is a poem I wrote several years ago after a teenage girl took her own life. Later, my neighbor, whose young son had died in his sleep, told me that she carried a copy around with her because she found it comforting.

TO ONE GRIEVING

Sorry, I must have touched the wrong button.

TO ONE GRIEVING

It hurts me to see you
in so much pain.
I sense your anger with
a God who has allowed
someone so precious
to be taken from you.

I pray that this pain
may become a source
of gratitude rather than
bitterness - gratitude
for what was given to you
to cherish and enjoy
even though for
too brief a time.

I would like to tell you
what I think your
loved one would
say to you,
"Be happy - I am.
Live your life,
drink deeply from all
it offers. I am close
to you, and in the end we
will be together again."
Not I but your heart
will tell you this,
when you are ready.

We'd like a God who
comforts and cradles us
in her arms - and she does,
but God's wisdom isn't ours.
If we could undestand God,
would she BE God?

Praying for you and lighting candles, Edda

Thank you so very much Edda, such a sweet thing to do for someone. I wish I could hug all of you in person. If there's any way that I'll get out of this depression and be better able to deal with my grief over losing my beloved son, it will be with the help of all my new friends and extended family here. I love you guys, you all have a special place in my heart and will remain forever friends!!!

Hi Lynn,

Your ok and there is no need to thank me. I am in agonising pain every day over my mum but I also know you feel much worse with Robby being your son, it must be very painful... I am going to see a lady in November who will give me a reading, my father went 2 weeks ago and he feels alot better for it although he still can't go on with my mum he did feel better so I am hoping it will help me too... We'll see xxx

Lynn, You are in my thoughts and prayers. I know your pain, I too lost my son. My loss was in November of 1999 so it has been longer and I can tell you that for most people time does help to ease the pain or at least you learn to live with it without it consuming your every thought but it does take a long time for that to happen. I burn candles often for many children who have left this world far too soon. Hang in there, only time will help, I'm afraid.

to; swrl I'm so sorry for your loss. I know everyone says time will make things more tolerable, I'm praying so because I don't know how much more of this pain I can take. I feel like an empty shell of myself, I don't like the 'new' me, and I know the old me died the same second as my son my did. I'm so sorry for everyone's pain and sadness, and I wish I could 'fix' it all. You're all so sweet, kind and wonderful and I am blessed for having for many new friends. Thank you all. (((((((Love ya))))))))

To everyone who has lit candles for my son Robby and for me. I thank you from the bottom of my heart. You truly are sweet, kind, gentle, caring souls and if I've said it before, I'll say it again. I am truly blessed to have you all in my life. A special note to Mattsmomma. I want to thank you for your son becoming a donor after his passing. Rob received two livers before he passed, the first one didn't work, the second one was, but sepsis overtook him from too many surgeries. But the donor families gave me 4 more days with my son, 4 more days for him to fight, 4 more days for me to love him and 4 more days for me to let him know how much I love him. I thank you, truly from the bottom of my heart and soul and please, please, for everone's sake, may we all be this generous so others can live longer and be with their families, even if for a short time. Prayers and blessings to all of you. Thank you!!!!!!!

Thank you all so much for your concern. Things are still kind of tough for me, but I am trying to hang on, even by a thread, I tied a knot in the end so I wouldn't slip off. With your help, I'll get back to where I belong. Thank you again, love you all very much!!!

A personal note to dwkaye. Thank you for you sweet, tender words of compassion, they are very much appreciated.
To all of you who care so deeply for me and Robby, I cannot explain how good it makes my heart feel. I feel as tho I am not carrying this burden alone. You are all here to help me and I love you one and all. Peace, blessings and good thoughts for all of you and may all your prayers be answered. To those of you who have lost a loved one, I feel your pain. We need each other to move on and become stronger, and thru this site I believe it is possible. Thank You Brother David and your entire staff, who I now consider to my friends...forever. Love you all!!!!!!
