Life is a gift

When we lost our child, the world did not stop. People went to work, cooked their meals, did their laundry etc…  The sun and moon rose and set just like always. The rain fell, the wind blew and the clouds passed by like they always have.. None of these things stop happening, no matter what we face in life. We will face another day, even when we don’t want to. Trust me, there are days when I just don’t think I can face another moment without my son. But I do because life is a gift. His life was a joyous gift I was blessed to enjoy for 14 amazing years. My life is a joy because I have family and his memory to help me continue. Our pain will never go away, just as our love for Arthur and his love for us  will never die..
