Living Life with Passion
Life is certainly different after loss, and it's true we don't have a clue how it will turn out. I've changed in so many ways, grown stronger as new experiences have reshaped my life today. I try to remain open to living, and I am at a different place than I ever might have imagined. My life and interests have branched off on a totally different course than if my husband had lived. And at this time, 4 years later, I know life, despite everything, is good for me. It has become vitally important… Continue

Infant Bereavement and Remembrance Photography
Recently I came across the website of photographer Cherly Mauldin.

Cheryl belongs to a nationwide network of affiliated photographers who offer this service to families, called "Now I Lay Me Down to Sleep" at http://nowilaymedowntosleep.org/>.

Grief Insight
I read an article recently about loss and grief. As a widow of four years, I can offer some insight into the grief process. I am 51 years of age. I was 47 when my husband of 20 years died from esophagus cancer at age 59. I took care of him for 11 months while he fought his best to survive. All cancer is devastating, but esophagus felt doubly so, since you cannot eat. He survived as long as he did only because he had a stomach tube inserted. My book is about mine and my family's experience during… Continue

I want to remind you I offer forums "Circles of Healing and Transformation" on my website www.mymeaningfullife.com. I would love to develop this community that deals with all kinds of transitions. Although some people have posted the majority send me personal emails....The Circles are in English and Spanish...I also included a Forum on Spirituality/Religion.
It would be great to have your comments there :-)!

The experiences in life made us what we are today. As you say....many people experience "highs and lows in life, while others coast along at a steady, unexciting ride" and it is true...we all have different scripts ....still I think that what matters the most is what we make out of our lives and the purpose behind....if we find meaning in what we do...we can live a fulfilling life. Each life is unique....each experience is unique...each grief is unique....we all have our internal clock....the beauty is to know when to use it....
thank you for your beautiful message....
