It's been quite a while since I have sat down here to write out my thoughts. I don't know if it's a good or bad thing not to have NEEDED writing as an outlet to release me from stress, anxiety, and grief... this doesn' mean that life isn't full of stresses and moments of anxiety and huge amounts of grief still...
It just means that life grows on. As time passes and the brain is able to figure out how life is supposed to proceed, the day to day gets more manageable.
I hate the phrase "life goes on." It hurts, to be honest. Since Caroline died, it feels like life hasn't just picked up where it left off. Instead, we have been left behind to relearn how to maneuver through emotions and a life we didn't recognize. It' incredibly hard. To say that "life goes on" feels like a slap in the face. We have been learning and life has been growing on. We are growing as families, as individuals, and as human beings.
We are learning what really is important and learning to value love and relationships with others more than anything. We are learning that happiness and contentment are huge factors in living a fulfilled life.
Growing isn't an option. It's a necessity to survival.
Anyways. That was a rabbit trail and a half. I literally came on here to write a quick update on how our family had grown since I last wrote and all of that came out!!
I will post again soon and I will hopefully update my info and get back into my fun family stories. In the meantime, go back and read some of my previous blog posts. I sure got a kick out of some of them!!
