GREEN SMILEY DAY !
I am sitting here on this rainy "Green Smiley Day" reading some of these heartfelt journals, some sad, and some Hilarious!! I love to laugh! I don't like to cry, but it feels better after I do. I think of it as LIQUID PRAYER! It seems when I cry, I attend to learn something from it, it puts me back on the right path....Maybe it has something to do with growing through my grieve, after having almost 4 years behind me..April 15 will be Ryans 4th Angel Day.. Cannot believe it!! I LOVE YOU RYAN!!!! I WANT YOU TO BE PROUD OF ME, AS I WAS OF YOU, MY PRECIOUS SON. I KNOW YOU WANTED ME SO VERY MUCH TO BE PROUD OF YOU, THATS WHY I WAS SO NIEVE ABOUT YOUR DRUG USE. YA, ERICA TOLD ME YOU DIDNT WANT ME TO KNO B/C, YOU WANTED ME TO BE PROUD OF YOU, AND ALL YOU WANTED IS FOR ME TO BE HAPPY...I WILL MISS YOU UNTIL THE DAY WE REUNITE AGAIN.. UNTIL THEN PLEASE CONTINUE TO SHOW ME YOUR AWESOME SIGNS OF YOUR PRESENCE...I CAN FEEL YOU AROUND ME SOMETIME.. PLEASE CONTINUE WITH THOSE SIGNS, THEY MAKE ME HAPPIER THEN YOU KNOW... LOVE, MOM

Four years, beyond belief, isn\'t it? I always feel better after a good cry. I don\'t cry as often as I used to (which I\'m sure Courtney is grateful for) but sometimes the tears come without warning and I\'m okay with that. Love to you, Mary Kay
It is just 16 months for me, but I do know that the tears are healing. I live in a rooming house and one of my roomies \"caught\" me crying outside tonight while sitting on the front porch. I told her that I need to cry. Love, B
I always thought of the tears as cleansing the soul and I like your version of liquid prayer. It will be 4 years this september for me and like you I still have some really hard days. The difference is though I no longer feel guilty about having good days. Hugs, Inga
