Those of us coping with loss find this time of year very difficult. Somehow, some of the joy is gone, for many, never to return.
When you lose someone dear, the void is too deep, the joy too far in the past.

We all try, some with a measure of success, the rest of us remember too well what used to be. Try as we may, some memories are so painful, they overwhelm the joy of the occasion.

My heartfelt best to all in this wonderful group. May the New Year bring better things, more laughs, sunny days and maybe a nice furry kitty to keep you company.

Thank you for all your kind words... fadedrose Dec 2013 #1
