I had no idea what a blogg was, so I started reading some of your blogs to see how you had one. I read some wonderful ones and some that were good, but one that struck me hard was one from a lady that had lost her son and now she thinks she is loosing her mind and friends. Feels guilty because she needs human contact. I guess what hit me so hard about this one is that unless you have experienced the loss of a love one, especially a child, it is hard for us to relate. We try to and we do and say what we can to help that person but we do not really know. I tried very hard to help my mom when she lost her husband of 20 years, and that was the meanest woman I had ever been around in my life. I just could not understand how she could be so mean to me for trying to help her. It was around the holidays also. I packed my bags up and flew home not to speak to her for 1 1/2 years. I was met at the airport by my loving husband and we went on to have a great Christmas with each other and our children. I prayed that my mom would call and apolize for being so mean to me, but she never did. Later I found out that she had no memory of being that mean. That it had taken all this time to greve and get it out of her system. We are fine now. Thank God, but I said all this to say, it is great to celebrate the hoildays and have the time of our life, and all the fun we possible can, but at some quite time and place say a small prayer for those who has lost a love one and can not enjoy the holidays with their families. Just pray that they will realize the pain will not last forever and that the ones that truely love them will be there when they need them and want them again in their lives, and help us to have a better understanding of the ones hurting. Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays to all. Thanks for your freindship.
