Happy 100 days!
We have shared our story, experiences, thoughts and encouragement for the past 100 days! We have been brave enough to keep going and keep sharing all while ignoring what they think along the way.
We have endured 100 days of discouragement and 100 days of encouragement.We have endured the terrible insensitive things people have said to "help" us.
Thanks.
As raw, painful, and rude as grief can be, she has this way of making me feel human.
If I have learned one thing over the past 100 days about about grief, it is this.
Through all the pain, the hurt, the moments;
through the feelings of wanting to give up and turn my back on everything and everyone, I have learned this from grief:
Although dark and raw and numb sometimes, grief can be beautiful. Everyday she teaches me about the person I can be; the person I truly am. She has lifted a cloak I have been hiding under for 22 years and now Domonique is blossoming. Domonique is being revealed. She, along with perseverance and God, has strengthened my faith. She has showed me it's okay to cry, scream, and weep because I am human; because I am a mother.
These 100 days have been my platform, my mark; my story. Touching the lives and sharing my story; your story Cam, with the world, is a part of the reason I have not given up. Shedding light, building my testimony, and breaking the silence is a what grief has encouraged me to keep doing. The past 100 days can attest for this.
So, on this 100th day of blogging, I will leave you with this.
Remember me
stumbling, crying, screaming.
Remember me
ranting, praying, begging.
Remember me now
Still Breathing.
Still Living.
Still Loving.
Still Standing.
Remember me
and never count me out.
Remember me on November 7th
Domonique.
A mother. Still lifted on her platform 100 days and counting.
I still don't know who I am, but grief has showed me who I am not.
I love you so much honey. More than I can ever describe.
Love Always,
Mommy
