Wrong Impression?
I hope the entry called Absent didn't give anyone the impression i'd like to throw this marriage out the window.We've been together for quite some time.We're going into our 60's.I'll be 59 soon.Yes,it is difficult.Yes, i sometimes question.Yes,i definitely wonder if getting back together is our best choice. However,this does not mean i've decided to toss it out the window.
I continue on with things in life as best as possible. We wait in joyful hope for the coming of our Savior,Jesus Christ.A proclomation we say at Mass btw.
Do i think the Lord is returning soon?Yes. I can hardly wait.If i'm wrong it wouldn't be the first time but it hardly matters.The Second Coming is something we all face at some point.
Not THE Second Coming but does that make a diference?
Mainly i have finally gotten on with our Catholic Forum.It took sometime to get back to it after mom's death.i honestly didn't feel like doing a thing after her death even the things i loved the most;and that would be the Catholic forum.
Dad's death wasn 't that much of a shock.A great loss but something i could see coming closer each day.Mom was doing well.She had beaten her cancer so many times.She was fine the night before.I had just talked to her on the phone that night and had seen her the day before. Tues morning i got the call at 11:15.i remember the day and exact time and the exact
words that were used to tell me.
All i can say now is cherish your mothers. Cherish your parents. Be there to care for them in their time of need. We put neither of our parents in a nursing home and no matter how difficult it might have been at times it was a time of getting close. It was so remarkable a time.Don't miss out on this.You will not regret it.Dad wanted to be home and that is where he passed away.
I wish now i had spent just one last day with mom.I was there on a Sunday.i wish now i had been there on that Monday.
God's grace.It keeps me going each day.Not as well as i used to but without God's grace there's no way on earth i'd get through any of this.
I'll leave it at that and leave for tonight with a link to our Catholic forum.It's been together at least 3 yrs and we just revamped:
