I continue to mourn a most valuable and beloved son. I
continue to have a yearning affection and heart felt affliction towards him.
Agonies of grief and unequaled anguish continue. The loss is beyond measure.
It is aggravated by months and years of void. Months and years fly away and
nothing allows joy to stay and no curtain can shut sorrow away. Without David’s
presence the earth is empty. My soul cannot be content any longer in this
world. My soul bleeds with anguish. I often experience my silent sorrow
bursting with loud laments. I weep and refuse to be comforted. I am surprised
that religion does not seem to console at times and at other times it is the
only consolation that allows me to survive.
I treasure the memories. These memories are like a fund which is
inexhaustible and which supplies all my wants by keeping my son alive. These
memories are rich, they are happy and they are a gift.
What can I do with all the days and hours that are left
before I can see David’s face again? I can live in the past and cheat myself of
the present. Or I can embrace life looking forward to eternity with him. I choose
the latter.
