In the beginning,there is a whole year of terrible "firsts"- his birthday, your birthday, your anniversary,all the holidays. Each time one came and went, however, it was a small victory, achieved with the help of those around me. My mother and my dogs formed the inner circle.Then there were the friends who set about putting pieces back together, each in his or her own way.They know who they are...and I am deeply grateful.
Betty White regarding the death of her husband
Undo it,take it back, make every day the previous one until I am returned to the day before the one that made you gone. Or set me on an airplane traveling west, crossing the date line again and again, losing this day...then that, until the day of loss still lies ahead,and you are here instead of sorrow.

June 20th 2006,marks five years since I last saw your smile. I miss you
A man is not dead until he is forgotten.

By the way, Dan would have hated this song...lol
What death does....
You quit believing in prayers years ago, but somehow you remember how to pray...and bargain...and then lose your mind.I found my mind again...but I learned God doesn't take requests anymore
IIt's such an act of optimism to get through a day and enjoy it and laugh and do all that without thinking about dying. What spirit human beings have!
Gilda Radner
I have seen death to often to believe in death. It is not an ending-but a withdrawal as one who finishes a long journey,stills the motor,turns off the light, steps from his car and walks up the path to the home that awaits him.
Don Blanding
Everytime I really miss Daniel, a song by the band Lonestar comes to mind,and reassures me of life after death...and convinces me love lives on.
I'm already there
I'm already there,Don't make a sound
I'm the beat in your heart
I'm the moonlight shining down
I'm the whisper in the wind
And I'll be there till the end
Can you feel the love that we share..
I'm already there.
I'm already there
take a look around
I'm the sunshine in your hair
I'm the shadow on the ground
I'm the whisper in the wind
And I'll be there to the end
Can you feel the love that we share
Oh I'm already there.
Regardless of your religious beliefs,its a scientific fact that our bodies are comprised of energy...and since its also a fact that energy can neither be created or destoyed,Daniel...in a very real sense....lives on.
Maybe today he is the sunshine in my hair or the shadow on the ground he's the whisper in the wind I swear sometimes I can almost hear...

Today,June 21st 2005,is the anniversary of the day you left this world. I still miss you, but in ways I can no longer explain. Yesterday, the anniversary of your last full day here on earth, your roses in your garden all opened up all at once! They're lovely, and now sit in a vase on my table.My plans for today were simple...to watch wrestling ( your favorite show)and maybe get KFC, your favorite food. So far, neither idea is working out. Wrestling isn't on tv, but I'm trying to get to the store to buy a video of wrestlemania, even though I only want it for you. If that fails, I'll watch the tape of the wrestling show we planned on seeing together, that you never made it to, and I'll bake some chicken. So you see, you are still in my life, in very real ways.
