Today I am ok and so I am grateful. Coach Louise talked to me about the truth. It helped alot. The truth is you can't predict when bad things are going to happen. Today I am strong enough to accept the truth, that things are going to happen whether I like it or not, but it's what I do with those things that will make the difference in my life. I believe in God. God makes me angry, confused and dissapointed. I still believe. When I'm angry he hears words that should never be heard. When I feel like I can't go on something happens and I somehow find the strength to get through another day. I believe it's him. I tried to kick him out of my life when my other son Ben was killed. I said to God, "really" " what is up with that? Why would you do this to menot once but twice? REALLY? I am slowly figuring it out that this is not the work of God. This is the work of life and there's no getting around it. God gave us a miracle. Jesus Christ. The rest is up to us. Sometimes I feel like God has done me wrong and that he does not hear my cries, but thats my anger that's my frustration and I want answers.we all want answers we all want to undrstand why, but could that be the part where true faith comes in? If god gives a miralce for me then he'd have to give one to everyone and there would be no learning, no blind faith. I believe we create our own miracles, I have to or I would be angry forever. The one thing I dislike the most is when others say " my child was saved because of a miracle" Ok so if thats true then why did'nt my child get saved by a miracle? Are others more important to God than me? Am I not worthy of a miracle too? Then I thought how silly the whole thing is. I believe God loves us all the same and that we make our own miracles in our lives. Heck just survivng the loss of a child is a miracle in it self. I survive because it's up to me to make my own miracles. A day without severe pain to me thats a miracle. The days that I can remember the happy days of my sons lives, that's a miracle. Being allowed to share my self and my story without judgement and ridicule that's a miracle. I believe surviving the loss of a child is a lifelong journey. A journey of love and remembrance, and sometimes alot of pain. I have to believe, I want to believe. I want to survie.I may not feel like this everyday but I do today and deep down in my soul I know I believe always, it just gets cloudy somedays. This is my blog so I can talk about God if I want to. I need to. I'm not afraid to. Bens birthday is at the end of the month  it will be a hard day to get through, but once again I will write in my blog and let it all hang out. I find writing as helpful as a therapist. Here I can say aand feel whatever I need to to help me survive the world of unfairness. Untilnext time, be good to yourself, try not to beat yourself up and always remember that you are loved.

Assumptions

An assumption is an unexamined belief: what is thought to be true without ever really realizing that we think in that way. For better or worse, understanding starts with entertaining the idea that something is true.  Truly profound thoughts generally come to light from the relaxation of these (flawed) assumptions.  This is where I find myself today...Perhaps, one of the more significant drivers to pushing down the loss and grief at the time of the accident, ignoring it and mindlessly walking…See More
