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.

Friday, 21 May 2010 -- Day 152 (165)
I forgot to mention in last night's post that I think I was more inclined to feel Mom's presence the other night b/c of something Dad told me when he was at the cemetery recently. The corsage I had placed on her head stone on Mother's Day was in a different spot. I distinctly remember placing it on the east side of the stone, which is the side where her casket is buried, but Dad said the corsage is now on the west side. Also, despite having been there for a week-and-a-half, it looks as fresh as when I placed it there. I can't explain it, and I don't want to try. I just want to believe that it's possible for Mom to watch over us whenever we need her. But I don't want to need her too much b/c she deserves her place in heaven.
