Loss, Losing, Lost & Letting Go

There is something about May. It a month usually punctuated by thunder and lightning, and tears; at least, my tears.

Loss
I am taking time in prayer for another fallen child: - a 13-year-old girl who lost her struggle against lupus. I may not have taught her personally, but I remember a spunky child who is not afraid to speak her mind and her fears. I know this as she had parked herself the whole afternoon speaking to the FTSC, telling her of her worries. Rest in peace, little one.

Losing
We wage many 'battles' daily...against diseases and crime, against things that are not right, against others...my hardest battles are fought internally. Currently, I feel as if that I am losing my grip on certain aspects of my life. I waver, shake and get swept over by things so easily. I am sure you understand the frustrations.

Lost
If something is lost, sometimes it is hard to find or replace it. Physical 'losses' are easier to cope with. In this case, I am saddened because I have lost something quite important to me - trust and understanding - with a person whom I thought was dear to me.

Letting Go
A loss, losing something and a 'lost' one.
I need to move on.
Let me slowly pick up the pieces, mend the broken parts.
But if that is too difficult, I know I'll throw the emotional baggage for I have to let go.
