And Yet This Happened to Me . . . |
Genesse Boudreau Gentry |
I took motherhood so seriously.
I took nothing for granted. I was always thankful for what I had. And yet this happened to me. I chose to stay with them, live through their lives closely, put my own aspirations on hold 'til they'd grown. And still, this happened to me. My life was spent caring for two lovely daughters who made my life special in so many ways. One day she was living, alive, well and thriving. The next she was gone to a life we can't share. I'm learning to struggle though life and the grieving, to find ways of being that bring wholeness and peace, and live with what happened to me. |
