The above quote was written by English author Neil Gaiman and here's another of his quotes below that speaks to me and, hopefully, to other widows reading this blog:
“I hope that in this year to come, you make mistakes. Because if you are making mistakes, then you are making new things, trying new things, learning, living, pushing yourself, changing yourself, changing your world. You’re doing things you’ve never done before, and more importantly, you’re doing something. So that’s my wish for you, and all of us, and my wish for myself. Make New Mistakes. Make glorious, amazing mistakes. Make mistakes nobody’s ever made before. Don’t freeze, don’t stop, don’t worry that it isn’t good enough, or it isn’t perfect, whatever it is: art, or love, or work or family or life. Whatever it is you’re scared of doing, Do it. Make your mistakes, next year and forever."
Written by Neil Gaiman
I want to give this post a big hug. Mistakes aplenty and hopefully more to come or maybe even some good things happen that aren't mistakes.
ReplyDeleteI still feel like I am in survival mode some days. My heart is so broken . Family, little ones are such big healers in their unconditional love. I know they don't know, but someone does, that they start out life so innocent and dear God , don't let them grow up and become jaded. Let them be precious and loving as long as they can. The outside world doesn't need the ones I have to break their hearts and make them sad. Little angels , they are.
Thanks for reminding me of this post.
