A new way

After months of struggle and some pretty low points whenever the 24th was about to roll around, I have finally found a new way of feeling. My sweet friend Katie opened her heart to my sadness and anger about Nolan's death, and responded with the words which changed those feelings into if not yet joy, acceptance and peace. Simply put, she told me to focus on the awesomeness of Nolan's six years, and how that's how he'll always be in our minds and hearts. He will remain a bright spot for us, and nothing can be changed about that. This last month, I let the 24th pass as a day, and instead celebrated the 26th, his birthday date. Think I'll make it a trend.

Blessings to you as you re-write your own trends.
