A Quote

Sometimes we are compelled to move on in life, physically and/or mentally, because of circumstances, when our deepest heart's longing is to remain in a space formerly occupied by a soul now passed. Copyright, 8-24-14 Faye Lanham Gibson

Wow! So meaningful and heartfelt, Faye. Indeed, it is hard to move on when we lose a loved one, but we cannot remain in the space we were prior to the loss. Excellent quote. Winning wishes coming your way. Love, Crolyn
