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.

Wednesday, 17 March 2010 -- Day 87 (100)
While reading my newest American Heritage magazine (Spring 2010, Vol. 60, Number 1), I came across an Abraham Lincoln quote, "To ease another's heartache is to forget one's own" (p. 15). On this 100th day since Mom's passing, I renew my pledge to help ease the pain of others and in so doing lessen mine. For the main purpose of this blog is to heal.
