Is it irony that makes me start an art journal blog today? Is it just that I need something to do today so I don't think about that day 11 years ago? Is it to get the guilt off my shoulders? I don't know but here it is.... I woke up today thankful for my life and the chance I was given 11 years ago. I love my family, friends and my life these days. i am not unhappy. I just feel scared for the future, scared for my kids growing up in this world. But I need to be resilient....for them. So today I will be like the grass....I will grow no matter who or what cuts me down. I will come back through cracks, I will grow without nourishment and I will be stronger each time. I will pass my resilience to my seeds, to my kids and they will be strong and resilient also. Nothing will keep them down, no one will hold them back.
So today, I am the grass...and I look up at the sky and know you are looking down and maybe you are smiling too...
