My whole family went to my moms usual 9:30 mass and sat in her pew. To say it was emotional and sad is the understatement of the century. I had just sat there next to her last Sunday. But during one of the songs, although just for a fleeting moment, I did feel a tiny breeze of optimism flow over me. It was the first one since my moms death. Its kinda like when running through the pitch dark night of a 100 mile race, and feeling like theres NO way youre ever going to make it. But then FINALLY you look on the far horizon and see the faintest hint of color...the sun rising, and that first feeling of HOPE comes back to you. I really feel like my mom sent me that feeling for just a few seconds today...to let me know well get through this eventually. Of course my reaction was to burst into tears, but it felt good in a weird sort of way. And I realize my emotions are like raw nerve ends, and Im slightly not in my right mind at the moment, but that song playing...whatever it was, was like the most beautiful song I had ever heard in my life...so crazy. Thanks mom!
