i love you dadi

in less than a year, I’ve lost my brother and just today, my dad. They’re passing were both sudden and painful. No words to describe the emotions I’m feeling right now. And my thoughts are running incessantly searching for answers in this moment of sorrow. I’m shaken and my heart is beaten, crushed into pieces that only God knows when and how will this end.

Some may misjudge me for posting while grieving, but let me share this quote from one of my favorite authors, Anne Frank.

“I can shake off everything as I write, my sorrows disappear, my courage reborn.”

I’ve been receiving messages of sympathy and prayers, I’m thankful for the comfort and consolation they bring to our grieving hearts. With two of our beloved family members’ passing so sudden, I’m left shaken. May this be a reminder to all that time is finite, life is very short,now it’s too late for me to tell my dad I love him but I pray with all my might that he knows…

Posted in life, new year

As 2016 comes to a close, I take a quick look back on the highlights of this year. The highs and lows, good, bad and the worst times. I’ve had it all this 2016. The most difficult was the sudden passing of my brother. Grief and pain was so acute that I prayed the hardest.

Each time I’m being told that I’m a super woman, no. I’m a woman, not really super, nothing great. But I have One Great God, that is Super. With Him I can be anything. And so with full of hope and faith, I know 2017 will be a much better year for us all. I’m grateful for a January 1 filled with dreams and positive emotions. Cheers to a new and exciting year!
Happy New Year!

 

much love,
