Life took a heartbreaking twist at 6:38 pm on April 1st.

Sometimes life’s events leave us pondering, searching for meaning in unexpected places. As I faced a challenging race recently, I couldn’t help but wonder if my mom’s spirit wasn’t there to help me out of a tough spot. All my abilities taken away, I had to struggle to the end and finish. Her power of walk and health was removed, but she kept fighting. Her recent passing has made me realize that perhaps I took her support and presence for granted. Now, I find myself reconnecting with memories and rediscovering strength since some of the burden of my self-pity and self-punishment has been lifted. I am grateful that her pain is gone every day now, and I know she’ll forever be with me, guiding me through life’s twists and turns. It’s time for me to buck up and stop feeling sorry for myself.
