In the coming weeks, I will be posting what some of us read at Mike's memorial celebration. I have, personally, wanted to reflect on those and give others the same opportunity. In the meantime, it seems we each are dealing with our ups and downs. Thankfully, not all at the same time.
If any of you have stories you would like to share, please feel free to post them here, or email them to me. We need to reflect as we move on.
I have been told by so many who have experienced grief that "you will have good days and bad days. " And that it "will hit you for no reason." I have been especially emotional the past 2 days, without any real reason. I guess that is what everyone has meant.
So I have no words of wisdom or eloquence, right now. Just a sad, broken heart, once again.
With that, I ask for continued prayer and uplifting for the whole Mike Watson, Jr family. It seems we are beginning yet another stage in life without him. Everyday is a new stage. That, to put it plain and simply....sucks. Forgive my term. I just don't know how else to say it and sometimes sugar-coating does not help.
Do know that the Lord remains our strength and redeemer. I have felt His presence and been so far away from it at the same time. I guess, at this moment, He seems rather far. I don't remember moving and I know He has not left. I just don't feel a lot right now, except sadness, numbness and sheer exhaustion.

Prayerfully,
