Kate said, “Anniversary.”
Seems a strange word to write a five-minute essay on, doesn’t it? Unless you’re having one.
anniversary, that is.
There are anniversaries of all sorts of things. Happy things. Sad things. Silly things. Spiritual things. I remember dates. Therefore, I have a lot of “anniversaries” floating in my internal computer.
Even a birthday is an anniversary of sorts.
Did you know that events, unfortunately I’m speaking of unhappy events. Sad events. Times of loss…
leave an imprint?
Our family isn’t fond of July – because of the imprint of a very sad time.
This year we add another sadness to the imprint of July.
anniversaries. funny how that word can be interpreted.
I think some of the sad anniversaries, we’d rather not remember, but they are a part of life and a part of our journey. I’m glad we can find comfort in God when sad memories come. Blessings and hugs to you, dear Susan! xo
Gayl, so true. It is those things that make us who we are. Consider it all joy…..
Susan, you have been and remain in our prayers. We love you so much! Your friendship is a beacon of hope, and we grieve with you.
I know you do. That’s what friends do.
I love you, Susan. My heart hurts for you and Lowell right now and you are in my prayers.

PS I’m having an “off” day so I might have commented twice. Just twice the love, right?
Just once, friend. We are healing and mending. SLOW process. xo
I’m like you Susan, I remember date and so I too have a lot of anniversaries in my world. Thanks for the reminder of how they all leave an imprint. I need to remember that as life continues on.
Robin, I have had more than one health specialist and non-traditional health person tell me the truth in that imprint module. It makes perfect sense to me.
You have brought another perspective of anniversaries. I focused on my wedding because this week is our anniversary but I am all to aware of other anniversaries that have not yielded happiness. What I can attest to is that God’s sovereign hand has woven through them all. Praying for you as you heal from some sad moments.
That wonderful weave of our mighty and sovereign God. Amen, Steph’, Amen. xo I have missed you girl.
