Sometimes

[Translate]

I share this with you today because we all feel this way…..sometimes.

The question is, do we stay “here” or do we make the choice to move on – out from under these feelings?

I hope when you are “here” in this state that we all “sometimes” are in, that you’ll choose to move beyond this….regardless of how slow it may be.

 

Sometimes……

    Marie…The 17th was the first anniversary of the sudden death of my VERY BEST FRIEND in the world…we met when I was 18 & she & her new husband & newborn baby moved into the house next door from Buffalo Ny. We instantly became inseperable and I fell in love with her little boy Jason. As the years went past, we only became closer & of course she was my Matron of Honor when I got married & I am the Godmother to both of her other kids. After her husband was transferred back to Buffalo where they were originally from, she cried & said that I would forget all about her…I made her a promise to NEVER lose touch, and well 27 years later, I kept my promise…until 3-17-10…when her husband went into their room to see why she wasn’t up for work yet, and he couldn’t wake her…she died of a heart defect that she didnt even know she had..I really find that hard to believe since she was the most LOVING, GIVING person…there was NOTHING wrong with that part of her heart! On the 17th this year, I saw people laughing, drinking , partying & celebrating all around me…and all I wanted to do was cry…Your words really & truly made me feel better…Sorry for writing such a novel, but I needed to tell you why those words fit so perfectly into my life…just when I needed them the most..so I Thank You!! Luvya, Denisa

      Wow, Denisa – I would have never ever known that me feeling overwhelmed and “ick” could have ever spoken to anyone. I published this with the hopes that some how it would help others to not feel guilty when “feeling bad” because we all do.

      I am so, so sorry for your loss. You bring me such great joy and inspire me everytime we communicate with each other.

      and..I never mind when you write novels…its always a good read! 🙂

      I wish I had known that you were going through your year of “firsts” without your best friend. I truly hope that something, somewhere brought you joy along the way.

      Thank you sweetstuff!! You’ve warmed my heart!

    Thankyou Marie for this poem.
    We all get in a funk and want someone to love and care for us, to fix everything. The problem does arise when we linger too long in that place.
    I am going to show this to my girls. I have always tried to show them how to be strong, confidant people with tender hearts. I want them to know it’s ok to be “taken care” of for a time, but also to know when they are strong enough again to stand on their own 2 feet.
    Thankyou again
    Much love Tina
    P.S. I enjoy all the “nuggets” you share 🙂 Keep up the God work

    This is so true. I think most of us have these moments. I know I do. Sometimes we all just need someone to be there for us. I can imagine you feel the same way too, especially with doing so much for others. I hope whenever you get into this “sometimes mood,” there is always someone by your side.
