An empty place at the table...a voice missing from the
laughter...a hand not there to hold.
These are the things I have missed this year. While occasionally I experience sadness, the
majority of memories are happy ones. By not focusing on mother's death, I am
comforted by the legacy of a saint, the power of the resurrection, the love of
God, the abundant life I will inherit.
While there is a hole in my heart that can never be filled in this
lifetime, I look forward with confidence to a heavenly jubilee.
