Tomorrow it will be one year since my mom died. It is strange to know it's been a year already. Keeping busy, going back to work, getting to know new people has been the best thing for me. When you go through hard times and losses you feel so much despair and you wonder, at least I do, when will this end? How will I feel a year from now?

At the time it seems impossible that the pain would be any less and that I would feel any different, any better than at that very moment, but I do feel a lot better today.
