Hello Monday! Welcome, new week. I look
forward to all your challenges and successes...
The new week begins; and once again on not
such a good note. Yesterday we found out that
one of my uncles, my mom's youngest brother
is in the ICU. He is not doing great. Please
say a little prayer that my uncle wakes up.

2026 has not been a good year so far.
So much death. So much tragedy. At times
you ask yourself if you can take anymore.
Truth is, what else can you do.
Life goes on with or without you, but the
heartache,grief stays with you much longer.
You don't talk about it all the time. You carry on.
You move on and when you find yourself alone
your thoughts take over. At least that's how it
happens to me. Not easy, but you learn.
The above is so true for those who have experienced
loss. Lately our family has experience more than
enough. It would be nice to have happy times.
Yesterday Arvid and I had a very nice outing,
but honestly my thoughts were far away, thinking of
my aunt, cousins and my uncle. Not to mention all
the family who is not here and not sure what
is going on. Life is definitely not easy.
Arvid and I were not the only ones
enjoying a relaxing outing at the beach.
While one may feel shattered by life's
hardships, the capacity to continue living,
even with deep, lasting scars—persists.
