I Can Change It All

One of the toughest things to deal with in life is the loss of loved ones. I myself have had to face this recently with in the last three weeks. Two of my uncles in three weeks and I have to say that it has been difficult. You see my grandmother passed away in 1996 and she was blessed enough to have 9 children. All of them have been blessed enough to make it until this point in life. They have all had struggles but have been blessed with good enough health to be here. You can’t even imagine how shocking it would be to 8 brothers and sisters to lose the youngest of them all first.

On top of that 2 weeks later we lose my mother’s sister’s husband. She just lost her baby brother and now she has lost her husband who she has been with since high school. He was 60.

So how do you move on?

Well the moral of the story is that we were blessed to have them here in the first place. We know that we are only here for a certain time so we have to let go and move on. They will both be missed greatly. Its going to be very different for me not having them around but I’m grateful for the time that I had.

Every time you lose someone you love it needs to be a reminder for you to take advantage of every minute that you have while you are here. Take control of your life. Every single inch of it is yours and you can make it into what you choose.
