Thanks for sticking with me...

I try to blog only when I have something worth saying or when there's something that just needs to get out. These days, the only thing really on my mind is how much I miss Matthew, which after reading for a while, can tend to make you very sad and heavy feeling. That's why I want to thank those of you out there who still read what I have to say. Eventually, I will be able to move on to the happier things in life, but for now I'm stuck in my own little world of pain and that's all I feel like writing about. Every now and then when I take a break and write a post on Claire or something fun we've done, it feels out of place and too happy. Because, if I'm being honest, this pain is still too raw and recent for me to gloss over with happy things. I promise that I will eventually come out of the gloom, but until then, thank you for loving me through this.

  1. Julia, I love reading your honest posts; not at all because I enjoy knowing that you are in pain, but because I am encouraged by your strength, your pain, your questions about God's plan, and honesty. I often question things that are happening and wish for a different reality, though very different then your situation, it encourages me that I am not alone in my "struggling", frustration, and pain here on Earth. So, thank YOU!

  2. I too love reading your posts! I read every one and I am reminded of how long and deep grief is. I know that God is meeting you but I also know that it is a very hard road. Your angst reminds me of some of what I felt / learned about life... while reading "A Grief Observed" by CS Lewis. Love to you, Lorraine
