May is a rough month. Four years ago, I lost my daughter. Ever since then...without fail, any time something happened negative...in May...it was blamed on the month. However, that's wrong.
May is a beautiful month. It's a month of regrowth. Flowers grow, and the sun shines. Temperatures rise. It's a beautiful, beautiful month.
Just because my daughter went to be with the Lord, does not mean I should always shroud myself in the black cloth of mourning and grief. The bible states, that when a loved one dies, you should rejoice. It is only fitting that in this month of regrowth my daughter went to be with her Heavenly Father. She is up there, wrapped in the ever loving arms of the Lord.
That isn't to say I don't get sad, for that would be a lie. I do get sad, especially since I cannot be there this year. However, I feel peace knowing that she does not have to endure the pain and suffering that is life. To live, is to feel pain. She never had to endure that. She is my guardian angel, and rather than look upon the month of May as a bad thing, I look upon it as a time of rejoicing and remembrance. This is a time to remember what she means to me, and feel blessed to have her for the time that I was blessed with her presence.
No, my friends, May is a very good month indeed. |
