One Third of My Light Is Gone

"...And the fourth angel sounded the trumpet, and the third part of the sun was smitten, and the third part of the moon, and the third part of the stars, so that the third part of them was darkened. And the day did not shine for a third part of it,, and the night in like manner." --Rev. 8:12

I have three sons. One of them is in the spirit world. On October 26, 2009, one third of the light in my life went out forever.

November 16, 2010

We have been attending L.O.S.S. support group meeting s on LaSalle St. the 3rd Tuesday of every month.  It turned out that Maris's birthday fell on this particular Tuesday.  I was grateful we had an opportunity to be with people who would understand on this special day.  We brought a birthday cake to the meeting, and asked the people to gather round the cake.  We gave each person a candle,. and asked them to make a wish and light the candle for Maris and add it to the cake.
