For over 20 years I had always spent X-mas eve with him. Was very odd this year. I went back home to spend it with my mom, but really just wanted to be left alone. I sat on my bad and staired out the window for hours that night wondering why god choses to make us morn and wondering why me. I don't want to get into a big religious speel, but I figure he has his reasons, and maybe someday I'll understand. It's all in his plan for me. I've lost people close to me before, but I never truely understood what missing someone was like until now. Everyone tells me that over the years it will get easier, we'll see. Just makes you realize how special the people are that are actually still in your life, and to not take them for granted. I have that poem "Footprints in the Sand" hanging in my bathroom, so each morning it reminds me that I am never alone. Well hope everyone had a happy holiday and 1969 Mach there's always a light at the end of that tunnel!

I am so sorry, Jill, to hear that! That had to be extremely tough. It sounds like you are a wiser person for it, and at least came away with something. But still, that must have been tough, and I'm really sorry you had to go through it.
I sincerely wish you a better 2003.
Take care,
~Chris
