Today is NOT a sad day.......

Today is NOT a sad day..............

Today is a day to be thankful for, it's a new day like every other. A day to spend with friends and to enjoy with my precious children.
We have a home, we have lovely food to eat, we are warm, we are surrounded by people who love us and care for us.

Today is NOT a sad day..............

Today is a day to give thanks for the life I have had, for the people I know and have known, for the lessons I have learnt and am still learning.

Today is NOT a sad day..............

A year ago today my best friend/husband/sole mate/father of my three gorgeous children departed from earth side. That was a sad day, sadder then any other. I have spent the last year questioning why? But no answers come to light and never will. I remember so many things about my beloved so many things that only I will know. His devotion to me and our children, his tender words of love and encouragement, his comforting cuddles, his creativity, his talent and his knowledge of the world. I am so grateful that in life he chose to spend his time with me and gifted me with three beautiful children who mirror many of his ways.

But today is NOT a sad day.............

Today I am stronger, wiser and more able. I have faced an event that I would not wish any other to have to go through, but I have come through it and I can hold my head up and smile. I do not dwell on the past but look forwards to what the future will bring.

Today is a NEW day..............Give thanks! xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
