As the day passed,
I found myself wanting to relive that first day,
moment by moment.
But I resisted that impulse
and made a decision
not to revisit the pain of the past.

My life is different now –
I am strong and whole again.

Today, I chose to remember my son
while staying in the present
and preserving my wholeness.

Because of the work I’ve done
in the last six years,
I was able to do just that!

Another year of healing begins………….
