Motivational Monday #13 – to Honor
If you are a regular reader, you may have been missing M over the past two months. Our dear friend and her husband are still reeling from, and dealing with, the sudden loss of their 25 year-old son. They are both back to work now, often grateful for the distraction and the focus on their prior normal, but heavy with grief and the constant awareness of what really matters in this life. It is to honor them, and with them in mind, that I offer you the following:
Sorry to hear this. It is so true, we need to be kinder to everyone.
Sometimes easier said than done, but always a good thing to remember!
That indeed is a thoughtful post.
Prayers and kindness are sometimes all we have to offer in such circumstances – it is so inadequate, but hopefully it makes some small difference.
I’m sorry to hear about M’s son. I’ll keep her family in my prayers.
Thanks, Jill. I know she will appreciate it – she believes that’s all that is sustaining them right now.
<3 <3 <3 Sorry to hear of M's loss. Tragic.
It really is, Tess – I’ll forward your hearts to her.
Thank you. <3
Oh – how deeply sad I am to hear this for your dear friend El. This is a depth of grief I cannot begin to imagine – no parent should have to bury their child. This kind of loss is not one that is ‘got over’ – one just learns how to live with a void inside. But I do know this, in the stillness and silence of their hearts, Andrew will live on. xoxo
I will pass on your beautiful sentiment, Pauline – I know M will appreciate it. And I, too, believe that Andrew will forever live on in their hearts.
I am so sorry.
Please convey my sympathies.
I will, Marylin – I know M will appreciate it.
So sorry to hear of this tragic loss. Keeping M and her family in my prayers.
Thanks, Dee Dee – I’ll let them know.
I am very sorry for M and her family for their tragic loss and I will be lifting them in my prayers.
Thanks, Tresa – much appreciated. I’ll pass it on.
I’m so sorry to hear of the passing of M’s son. My thoughts and prayers are with you and your family, M.
I know she’ll appreciate it, Maddie – thank you. -El
So sorry for M and her family. My prayers are with them!
Thanks, Kay – I’ll let M know.
