After I became a widow I found "time" a strange friend - sometimes it seems like Donnie just died and yet at other times it seems like a distant past with strong memories.
As I look back at 2014 there is one thing I'm sure of - time is a gift that once used is never replaced. I started thinking about how another year of my life that is forever gone and did I value it as I should have.
I sat down and thought about the struggles I had and what did I learn from them?
What did I learn about myself?
What difference did I make in 2014?
Did I value myself?
Was there enough family time?
All of what I've gone through has made me what I am today. It is all part of my journey, my story is ongoing and continues as a blank page.
This year of 2015 as I continue my journey I'm not just setting small goals. I'm thinking "Who am I going to be by the end of this year?"
