One year ago... Mood
Monday, July 7, 2008 | A Positive story

I joined this website one year ago today, my heart was broken and I really can't tell you how I found my way here, I was just searching for help. I believe that it was no accident that I found my way to this wonderful supportive and loving place. What a difference a year can make. To all of my wonderful friends I thank you and I wish I could give you all some real life hugs. The reasons we are all here are very tragic reasons but we have each other to walk down this road with. During this past year I  have become a new person, I know that life is a gift and I know not to take even one minute for granite, I know that perfect stragers can be your biggest support, I know that we never will "get over" our losses that each day we choose to live with our pain and some days don't hurt as bad as other days but even on the painful ones we choose to walk through the pain(somedays beter than others),I have had a few hiding under my covers not welcoming the world days, and you have all taught me that that it is okay to have those days. I am so thankful I have a place to come where people understand. I am also so saddend that people ever have to understand. Thanbk you for you continued support, and I have also learned that none of us ever stop needing the support of each other there is no magic numbered day we get to that we are alright, we are on a rollercoaster.

 

Love Hugs and Prayers to you all,

Tamberly

    Tamberly,
    I just wanted to let you know that you have helped me so much. Your journals inspire me and give me so much hope for tomorrow and for brighter days. You have been where I am now and each time I have my down days, I think of you and how you made it through and that I can too. I see what a wonderful person you are just by your journal entries and your profile and I too want to be a better person. Its sad that we are all on this website for the reasons we are, but its so comforting to know that we are not alone in this journey. Thank you for being the person you are and for all your advice and support.
    Hugs,
    Renee

    That is such a nice entry. I am so glad that you have found support hear and that you can see that you have made progress in your journey. I too feel that I can see a growth in me and somehow I did end up stronger, eventhough at times I felt weaker. I am so glad for your baby daughter, who we all know from our own experience is a true miracle. Love to you. Big Hugs.
