"What is forgiveness?" asked the teacher. A little girl answered, "It's the wonderful fragrance that a flower makes when it has been crushed." My daughter's suicide taught me forgiveness, whether I was ready to learn it or not.

Life in Michigan comes complete with lots of beautiful trees that spring to life in the spring, providing vibrant green foliage and shade during the summer, and spectacular fall colors in the brisk air of autumn. Then, the leaves all fall off the trees and create a huge amount of work for those of us who live amongst the trees. I’m not complaining, much.

Don't grieve for me Mom,
i'm not that far away
I know you feel my presence
each and everyday.
You held me for just a little while
But, don't grieve for me Mom
I was God's borrowed child.
I'm here in heaven now
Alive and free in God's embrace
Please don't grieve for me Mom
I'm in just the right place.
As mother’s we live for our children and we do everything for them and sometimes that even means doing to much they never learn to do for themselves.
