How time passes by! It is six hundred days since you departed this life to the next eternal one. These days,your garden is all colors and blooming. When I look at it I can feel your spirit move inside me. I have been busy going over the photo albums that you have collected during your sweet and short life. I spent many hours scanning them and saving them in the computer. I have them as a screen saver. All day and night your photos will run on the screen, changing every five seconds. I love to look at your pictures . May 04, 2003 |

Today, we had the monthly meeting for the families of the victims of 9/11. The topic was "resilience". It was very beneficial. Quotes to consider: "The world breaks everyone and afterward some are stronger at the broken places". (Ernest Hemingway) "Although the world is full of suffering, it is full of the overcoming of it". (Helen Keller) "If someone falls in an ocean, he either swims or sinks. It is his choice". "When someone has a tragedy at home, he has the choice of getting BITTER or BETTER". May 10, 2003 |
