The Quarterback

-

Right now I'm watching Season 5 of Glee, episode 3. The Quarterback.   Those who are close to me know how this show was instrumental in my healing process after M-Jay passed.  And maybe 2 months ago, I watched this episode with someone who's song is in my heart,  "I'll stand by you"

I admit this episode pulls at the heart strings.  Especially when they talk about how a parent buries a child.

I've never been fond at glorifying celebrity, especially those struck down by their own mistakes.   But I admit, I felt twinges in my heart when I heard Cory Monteith passed.

This last week, I've had a myriad of emotions going through my head for various reasons.   I was able to talk and let out something inside that needed to be said.  Maybe thats the lesson.  Life is too short to be trapped inside yourself or a situation.  If you care, let that person know.   You never know how things could change

*Just a disclaimer here.  If I use your name, and you don't want me to, drop me a private line either on text or facebook.  I'll change the names of the innocent, so to speak.  Also, I use this as a forum for my thoughts in my mind.  Sometimes it takes minutes to do a blog, sometimes hours, and sometimes days.  While I might clean up the sentences and grammar to look acceptable, they are 100% of my raw emotions and feelings.  Yes, that might be too strong for some, but I'm not catering to anyone.  Yes, I appreciate feedback and advice.  If it goes with what I'm trying to do, I might even take it.* Last night, was the Memorial Candlelight service at Good Samaritan.  It was, quite frankly, an emotional, sad, happy, crazy draining night.  It continues the road that we started on February 1, 2012.  One I never thought possible, that I never thought we would survive, and thanks to people like Mary Radatovich, we are slowly pulling through.  With her, and our fellow group

The new normal.

While I'm sure it's oh so hilarious, this does NOT refer to the television show. I've been searching for that lately.  Online, various websites, magazines, internally.  Normal is a relative term.  What's normal to someone is totally against the grain for someone else.  What is normal, however, for a grieving family.  Is it the guilt a mother feels for failing to protect her child?  Is the feeling an older brother got for being jealous, or thinking it's his fault for getting mommy upset, that his sister went to heaven?  Is it the family pet, knowing that there's an emotional need in the family, tries to fill it by being by someone's side? Perhaps it's the overwhelming feeling to fill and fulfill every waking moment of the ones left behind with memories and good times.  For some, it's the random emotions striking you when you see a christmas ornament in a store.  A song on the radio, which turns the faucet on of your eyes.  Is it feeling your oats

On a serious note, especially with #8.  Those who know me, or just found this blog, or read it because I shamelessly plug (Again, thank you) know my family suffere
