Jessica I pray you don't forget that the sun still shines when you see no light in sight. The flowers still bloom when your heart is weeping. Life will continue to move even though you feel stuck and one day soon the love around you will give you the strength to feel joy again. Birth is a beginning and death a destination. My prayers are with you and your family
