I do wish and pray that everything gets easier for you, I&amp;#39;ve been told by many who have experienced loss, that it never gets better but it gets easier, and somedays are better than others. I pray that your heart gets to feel happier again, and your shoulders feel lighter. I&amp;#39;ve not yet experienced a devestaing loss.  I&amp;#39;ve had a rough two years with life. Its encouraging to know that sometimes even though you feel like you are the only one that is struggiling with understanding the workings of the world, you aren&amp;#39;t alone. I appreciated your very real, and honest, and open post. Thank you for not making me feel like I&amp;#39;m falling short of so many duties...because of my heart hurting and things not being splendid all the time. That sometimes it&amp;#39;s okay, to just hide and collect and gather your thoughts. I to, am finally climbing out of my hermit hole, and am thankful that through my time in that hole, I figured out who was worth spending time on, and who wasn&amp;#39;t. My favorite saying lately has been by Scarlett O&amp;#39;Hara afterall tommorrow is another day.. I will be praying for your family, your mother and for you as well.</content><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5686577189211870901/3250496018645425432/comments/default/7849898756664865871'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5686577189211870901/3250496018645425432/comments/default/7849898756664865871'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://www.daily-happenings.com/2012/01/explination.html?showComment=1329121560275#c7849898756664865871' title=''/><author><name>Brady Beeson</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/00205605967095321016</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:extendedProperty xmlns:gd='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005' name='OpenSocialUserId' value='02631989483435637811'/><gd:image xmlns:gd='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005' rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='21' src='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-malNyFjwwTs/TiNE9Zq6vrI/AAAAAAAAAW8/HLeLTk45F3w/s220/me.jpg'/></author><thr:in-reply-to xmlns:thr='http://purl.org/syndication/thread/1.0' href='http://www.daily-happenings.com/2012/01/explination.html' ref='tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5686577189211870901.post-3250496018645425432' source='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5686577189211870901/posts/default/3250496018645425432' type='text/html'/><gd:extendedProperty xmlns:gd='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005' name='blogger.itemClass' value='pid-499774504'/></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5686577189211870901.post-3367906626013004342</id><published>2012-01-31T20:53:55.368-08:00</published><updated>2012-01-31T20:53:55.368-08:00</updated><title type='text'>Krista,

I was wondering if I was just a big baby thinking people have just not been there for me through some awful times. In December of 2010, I lost my grandmother after 6 months of hospice care in my home. It was a life changing experience for me, as well. In January, 2011, my 15 year marriage ended unexpectedly. I barely made it through the months that followed, and where were my friends? People have just not been there and it is terrible. I have tried to use the new year as an excuse to have a better attitude. January was a fail, but I am not giving up! Thanks for your words...Bobbi</content><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5686577189211870901/3250496018645425432/comments/default/3367906626013004342'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5686577189211870901/3250496018645425432/comments/default/3367906626013004342'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://www.daily-happenings.com/2012/01/explination.html?showComment=1328072035368#c3367906626013004342' title=''/><author><name>Anonymous</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image xmlns:gd='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005' rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img1.blogblog.com/img/blank.gif'/></author><thr:in-reply-to xmlns:thr='http://purl.org/syndication/thread/1.0' href='http://www.daily-happenings.com/2012/01/explination.html' ref='tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5686577189211870901.post-3250496018645425432' source='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5686577189211870901/posts/default/3250496018645425432' type='text/html'/><gd:extendedProperty xmlns:gd='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005' name='blogger.itemClass' value='pid-132297570'/></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5686577189211870901.post-3399892864385782035</id><published>2012-01-29T14:29:41.302-08:00</published><updated>2012-01-29T14:29:41.302-08:00</updated><title type='text'>I&amp;#39;m so sorry your family had such a rough year...</title><content type='html'>I&amp;#39;m so sorry your family had such a rough year.

I saw for myself the anguish you were suffering in May in holding yourself together for the sake of your family.I tried to stay in touch through e-cards and gifts at Thanksgiving &amp;amp; Christmas to assure you your family was in my thoughts. It has taken me until January this year to accept my sissy has gone. Each time I called the house I still expected to talk to her. I was talking to a family member at Debbie&amp;#39;s wedding about family relationships and just burst into tears at what was a very happy occassion! I am so sorry to hear about your Mom, whom I had the privilege to meet last year, I do hope she is now much better.

She lived in Nebraska and so my Dad was basically sadly living there (he lives in Oregon) all summer with the stress of working from afar and dealing with his ailing mother. By the time I went to see her, she was a fragment of who she used to be and I had to try very hard to not cry when I was in her presence. It was very sad and remains so, I still feel bad about it.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Like you, I also took note of people who didn&amp;#39;t think to call or care during that time. I think in some cases these people just really had no clue what was going on and honestly, I imagnie there are times when I was COMPLETELY oblivious to others&amp;#39; strife and that makes me feel bad. Some people in your case fit into this niche.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;And then there&amp;#39;s those who really just don&amp;#39;t care and or think to reach out but know they shoudl. Those are the ones you either confront for understanding or let go. It is hard.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Either way, I&amp;#39;m happy to see you back and glad that you feel better to talk again and begin 2012 on a good foot. I think that Blogging is a nice way to let the world go.. i.e. write a post about stupid high-heels when you spent all day crying. Just a nice little escape.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Wishing you well and hoping to read more from you soon.</content><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5686577189211870901/3250496018645425432/comments/default/7461856599530989873'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5686577189211870901/3250496018645425432/comments/default/7461856599530989873'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://www.daily-happenings.com/2012/01/explination.html?showComment=1327629730181#c7461856599530989873' title=''/><author><name>Miss Caitlin S.</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/10643817536737845811</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:extendedProperty xmlns:gd='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005' name='OpenSocialUserId' value='03313343928427601196'/><gd:image xmlns:gd='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005' rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='24' src='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_q2CkkL3xOgE/SeioBAET0YI/AAAAAAAAAOg/IrD_K3gR5kk/S220/me+solo.jpg'/></author><thr:in-reply-to xmlns:thr='http://purl.org/syndication/thread/1.0' href='http://www.daily-happenings.com/2012/01/explination.html' ref='tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5686577189211870901.post-3250496018645425432' source='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5686577189211870901/posts/default/3250496018645425432' type='text/html'/><gd:extendedProperty xmlns:gd='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005' name='blogger.itemClass' value='pid-2036483704'/></entry></feed>
