I thought I would die. No — I wanted to die. How could I go on after this tragedy? How could I live with this huge hole in my heart?
I re-lived every step and watched for the signs... Did I miss something? I woke every day thinking it was all a bad dream that didn’t really happen.
“Hey God, remember me? Can we talk? I’ve got an idea I want to run by you...” I created elaborate scenarios and made bargains with God: If this, then that. You can do that, right?

Today I honor my pain. For all that was taken from me, now it fills me. My pain is my touchstone, it keeps me grounded. The “hole” now makes me “whole”.
