The Beginning of what felt like the end.

Hey there and welcome! is Christy or Chris for short. Yes, this is me in the pictures above with different members of my family. I can tell you right now we are not the Brady Bunch or This is US type of family. RIP Mama, Daddy, and Marvin. Between 2011 and 2016, I felt the world was crashing all around me. I lost both my parents and my spouse. I was a teenage mother, a single parent, a wife, and daughter-in-law, and a widow. It has not been easy, and I won't say I am healed behind it. One thing I do know is that everyone does not grieve the same way and that is okay. I have decided that life is still worth living, and even though I am in a strange, new season of life. There is more waiting for me.

Quote of the day!

Every day has its own surprises in store for us. 😮 However, we must anticipate them in order to truly recognize, experience, and appreciate them. 🤔 We should embrace every surprise that comes our way, whether it brings us sorrow or joy. 🤗 It will allow us to create a new space in our hearts, where we can welcome new friends and celebrate our shared humanity with greater joy and enthusiasm. ❤️ This was beautifully expressed by Henri Nouwen.
