For mum...
Just for today I will try to live through the next 24 hours and not expect to get over my child's death, but instead, learn to live with it one day at a time.
Just for today I will remember my child's life, not his death and bask in the comfort of all those treasured days and moments shared.
Just for today I will forgive all those who didn't help or comfort me the way I needed them to. They truly did not know how.
Just for today I will smile, no matter how much I hurt on the inside, for maybe if I smile a little, my heart will soften and I will begin to heal.
Just for today I will reach out to comfort a relative or friend of my child, for they are hurting too, and perhaps we can comfort each other.
Just for today I will free myself from my self-inflicted burden of guilt for deep in my heart, I know if there was anything in the world I could have done, to save my child from death, I would have done it.
Just for today I will offer my hand in friendship to another bereaved parent for I do know how they feel.
Just for today, when my heart feels like breaking, I will stop and remember that grief is the price we pay for loving, and the only reason I hurt is because I had the privilege of loving so much.
Just for today I will not compare myself to others. I am fortunate to be who I am and to have had my child for as long as I did.
Just for today I will allow myself to be happy, for I know that I am not deserting my child by living on.
Just for today I will accept that I did not die when my child did, my life did go on, and I am the only one who can make that life worthwhile once more.
Just for today I will honour my child by showing compassion and love to each one I come in contact with, as he spread love wherever he went
Just for today I will seek to live life to its fullest, and in so doing, celebrate the life of my child, and thus, continue to keep his memory alive.
I woke up one morning with a poetry verse in my head. I was dreaming about celebrating my brother, Paige's birthday, who was already residing in heaven. He moved there in 1995, at the young age of 24, after a bought with lung cancer. He didn't smoke. That question always pops into everyone's head. Anyway, I had read the Christmas poem before. I love you all dearly, now don't shed a tear, I'm spending Christmas with Jesus this year.
I think God gave me the same kind of idea but for my brother's birthday. It took me two weeks to finish the poem but here it is:
I love you so much,
Though I'm not on the Earth,
Please celebrate with me,
The day of my birth.
Don't get me a gift,
Just think of me here,
I'm in heaven with Jesus,
Amidst bliss, joy, and good cheer!
Delight in the mem'ries,
Of my love now and then,
'Til that wonderful day,
When I see you again.
Happy Birthday Paul, love to you and mum.
God Bless.

To honour you
To honour you, I get up everyday and take a breath
And start another day without you in it.
To honour you, I laugh and love with those who knew your smile
and the way your eyes twinkled with mischief and secret knowledge
To honour you, I take the time to appreciate everyone I love
I know now there is no guarantee of days or hours spent in their presence.
To honour you I listen to music you would have liked
And sing at the tope of my lungs, with the windows rolled down.
To honour you I take chances, say what I feel hold nothing back
Risk making a fool of myself, dance every dance.
You were my light, my heart, my gift of love, from the very highest source.
So everyday, I vow to make a difference, share a smile, live, laugh and love.
Now I live for both of us, so all I do, I do to honour you.....
Love and God Bless.
Although you cannot see me
Don't believe that I am gone
My spirit still remains
To help you carry on.
Lift your hands to Heaven
And that glimpse of light you see
May be the hope you're seeking
Found inside of me.
A life may wane and wither
And eventually fade from view
The energy transforms to light
Still to be sensed by you.
Don't assume I cannot see you
Just because you can't see me
I'm standing right beside you
Where I always want to be.
Love and God Bless

"Last night while I was trying to sleep,
My son's voice I did hear
I opened my eyes and looked around,
But he did not appear.
He said: "Mum you've got to listen,
You've got to understand
God didn't take me from you, mum
He only took my hand.
When I called out in pain that night,
The instant that I died,
He reached down and took my hand,
And pulled me to His side.
He pulled me up and saved me
From the misery and pain.
My body was hurt so badly inside,
I could never be the same.
My search is really over now,
I've found happiness within,
All the answers to my empty dreams
And all that might have been.
I love you all and miss you so,
And I'll always be nearby.
My body's gone forever,
But my spirit will never die!
And so, you must all go on now,
Live one day at a time.
Just understand-
God did not take me from you,
He only took my hand."
