Happy New Year Grellis! Thanks for the thread. My in-laws were visiting yesterday, and my brother-in-law was on my computer a lot. I didn't get to freep.
I'm hoping this next year is better than last year. My brother died and my dad has been in and out of the hospital. Unfortunately, I'm worried that my dad won't last much longer.
Anyway, my goal is to be happy and enjoy life. It may sound simple, but the past few months have been difficult. I've felt guilty when I've had fun. I don't think my brother would like that, so I'm going to have fun with my family this next year and enjoy the good gifts that God has given us.
Happy New Year Everyone!
I'm sorry to hear of the loss of your brother and your father's ill health. I hope the new year brings you, well...oddly enough, "Comfort and joy" really sums it up. Comfort for your loss, joy in the knowledge that your brother is with our Father. I never really thought about the meaning of the words to that carol, but I'm thinking about them now. Prayers for you and your family!
