Bittersweet Anniversary

Tomorrow is the one-year anniversary of my Mom's passing, and it's been a rather sad week - I'm sure tomorrow will be even more sad. It's actually been rather touchy since the end of October, as it was October 31 of last year that we first found out something was wrong with Mom. So I suspect we've all been very much re-living the rather nightmarish events of last year in our minds since October 31 rolled around this year. (I know I have been, and Judy as well, and I'm sure our other two sisters probably have been too.)

But while tomorrow is sad for us, it's also rather beautiful in a way - at least it is to me. Because while it is the one-year anniversary of our loss of Mom's physical presence here, it is also the one-year anniversary of her and Dad's reunion in Spirit. (Dad passed over 28 years ago.) So for them, it is a joyous anniversary. When Mom passed last year we were happy to think that she and Dad were once again dancing together, and I suspect that they will most likely be having an anniversary dance or two tomorrow!

So as always, there is joy with the sorrow, and silver linings in the clouds...

Mom, we miss you and love you (and you too Dad!) and I wish you peace and joy - and I wish you both a happy and beautiful reunion anniversary tomorrow - with the Universe as your dance floor!

Terri I actually thought of you around the same time..... knowing you had just gone through the first anniversary as well. We'll have to send out "vibes" to each other at Christmas.... I'm glad I'll have my sis Pammie here with me!!!
