Stop being afraid of what could go wrong and start being positive what could go right.

Sometimes it helps to know we're not alone in grief.

Thank you Lion! We are going through some tough times with a beloved family member who is very ill and this is a very meaningful thought.

Op.....your saying and Autumn's brought a tear to my eye. Almost 9 months ago, I lost the love of my life and the man who I had hoped would be the last face I see before I closed my eyes for the last time. This is the most difficult thing I have ever been through although I have lost almost every close family member. Nothing has hurt so much.

Thank you for posting.
