I wrote this last year. As graduations and Mother’s Day approach, we need to be prepared.
I encourage each of us to not let anxiety and fear overwhelm us or keep us from participating in activities. Especially activities involving our other living children. Once we miss an event, we cannot go back and recapture that time.
I’m not saying you should go to everything you have been invited to attend. We must use wisdom in deciding what is best for each of us. Especially in those early months when we are still so wounded, we must protect our hearts. There are events I chose to pass on.
But there are things that we must do, dates that will come whether we want them to or not. And there are ways to prepare for those events and dates.
