This was supposed to be a light hearted blog, but on May 25th 2008, our world changed dramatically due to a disaster. Now this blog will also contain my personal notes on grief and how I'm coping/struggling.

Orphaned
Technically I guess that I am an orphan (as some have coined it) now that both of my parents have died. I don't really feel like that though, I have so many people that care for me that I don't have that lonely feeling that I associate with the word "orphan". I have (now that I've realized it) several families: Blood family, church family, band family, work family, friends family, and it goes on. There are still people I look up to, and people I feel I must "be strong for", so I don't really feel like an orphan.

I am happy that you can find comfort in all of your families. I hope you can continue to feel the love that everyone has for you and that it provides some of what you need - I know that changes daily, hourly, by the minute...
I miss you and hope to see you in 2009- that is our plan anyway...
