My mother passed away on December 10, 2009. I needed a way to help myself work through the grieving process. I knew that just writing an occasional entry in a paper journal wouldn't help me deal w/ the myriad of emotions. I've pledged to write in this blog every day for a year to chronicle what I hope will lead from the pain of mourning to the glory of remembrance.

31 January 2010
One of my favorite quotes is from Robert Frost: "To be social, is to be forgiving." At times I've interpreted this quote to mean that as social creatures, we humans must permit occasional errors in judgment from those around us. At the present, I interpret this quote to mean that people will disappoint us; they will frustrate us; they will anger us; they will die. And despite all this, we must forgive each other. For if we do not, we are destined to a lonely, forlorn life.
