Today is somewhat bittersweet. Two years ago today is the day that my beautiful sister Suzanne "graduated" from this life. Suzanne is a loving and kind soul. She hated to see people unhappy. Family was the most important thing to her and she was a true friend to others.
Anyway, my reason for posting today is to not only express my gratitude for having the opportunity to know and love someone who will love me unconditionally, but also to express gratitude for having such loving friends and to live in such a beautiful world.
The last few weeks have been so busy I honestly forgot what today was when I woke up this morning. A couple of my friends sent me texts of support and love and I was somewhat confused at how random that was. I then recalled the significance of the date and have thought of Suzanne the remainder of the day. Later as I was driving home from work this song came on the radio and I felt her love for me even more.
For some reason the video isn't linking. The song was My Wish by Rascal Flatts. You can listen to it here if you like.
I am so grateful for the small, everyday moments when I am able to feel Suzanne's immense love for me.
I will probably post again but to get the thought out there, Suzanne's birthday is April 6. This year my mother expressed the desire that for our gifts for Suzanne we will be preforming service and small acts of kindness in her name and memory. I would like to invite anyone who would like to join. And please, if you do join, we would love to hear of the lives Suzanne is able to touch through all of us.
