Another Year

Well Monday will be 2 years since my sweet baby left. I just had to go through his birthday last month without him. My baby had just turn a year old when he passed away. I tell you this does not get easier for me as time go on. I just think about the memories that we had together and I just start crying. I find myself crying on the way to work, at work, when I leave work, and in bed at night. I just pray everyday that the Lord continue to make me strong. Cause I remember up until a year I use to think about taking my life all the time. Because I felt like I just could not live without him. I did everything with him. He was my life. I didn't work then so I was always at home with him. When I went somewhere he always with me. When he died I lost my companion. So I just felt all alone. I just hope and pray that the Lord continue to strengthen me because I once was at a very low point in my life. I don't think I'll experience anything as hurtful as this has been. I just have to live my life the right way so that one day we can be reunited again.
