For many millions of us, Facebook has become a key way of keeping in touch with friends and family. Many share news of important life events like births, birthdays, anniversaries. And many also have begun to use Facebook to share news of an important end-of-life event – the death of a loved one. As Legacy.com explores and develops…

Let’s face it: we all have negative or bad experiences in the past that we just cannot seem to get past. There are just certain things, that when remembered, always cause anxiety and anger to build up inside us. The lost of someone you love is not easy to forget. And we have to admit that sometimes we just don’t want to let go of these negative emotions and memories. Why? Do we want to feel like we’re the victim? Do we need to even the score before we let go?

The truth is,…

The challenges we face when moving forward.

I believe it will help you to know that moving forward when an unfortunate station happens is a process; in fact, it’s a long journey of acceptance and healing, and there is not a specific time period.  But I know you can get through it, and return back to a happy and productive life. I know it is hard for you to believe what I am saying right now, but you must hold onto hope, keep the faith. Keep reminding yourself that things will…

I thought of you and closed my eyes, 

And prayed to God today. 

I asked what makes a Mother, 

And I know I heard him say: 

A mother has a baby, 

This we know is true. 

But, God, can you be a mother, 

When your baby's not with you? 

Yes, you can he replied, 

With confidence in his voice. 

I give many women babies, 

When they leave is not thier choice. 

Some I send for a lifetime, 

And others for a day. 

And some I send to feel your…

How will your loved ones track those “invisible” bill-pay charges?



Over time, I have set up automatic payment for several of my bills:



• My monthly mortgage bill is paid by a recurring, automatic charge (direct debit) to my checking account. Two insurance premiums are paid the same way.



• Other bills are automatically charged to my major credit card:…

They say there is a reason, They say that time will heal. 

But neither time nor reason Will change the way we feel.

For no one knows the heartache that lies behind our smiles.

No one knows how many times we have…

Hello My Friends;

My Mom who was my best friend, my confidant, my hero passed away on November 3, 2009. I miss her more and more everyday! to aid in my pain I came across these three prayers, that I would like to share with you all:…

If you were given the choice between diving into the darkest depths of the ocean, fully equipped with all of the gear needed to handle whatever you might encounter, OR being slowly dragged down by an 80-pound anchor while you flailed frantically to keep your head above water, which would you choose?…

They say, writing is the best way to sort your feelings out, I do not know if thats true, but it's worth a try.

I have lost so many loved ones in my life, some of the most important people I lost at a young age.

My Uncle by marriage has always sent me pictures of the past, he does it mostly to keep in touch I think.

I received two pictures the other day and they have been haunting me. Pictures have never bothered me until this recent set came along.

This child,…

A special friend of Jennie's made this...and I love it showing both of my daughters and some of Jennie's friends with her...turn up your sound to hear the song that she chose to go with it.    Just something I thought I would share.

Well, I've read that anger is a part of grief, and it's been around since not long after Steve died.  But it reached new heights this week after one of the men in my grief group asked about "fault" in Steve's accident.  I could have ducked the question, said I haven't seen the full police report yet (which is true).  But I didn't; I answered.  I know that whatever the driver of the car did wrong, Steve went through a stop sign, so he shares the responsibility for his death.  I'm having a lot…
