POSITIVE MEMORIES
I HAVE POSITIVE MEMORIES OF LOVED ONES
I am able to recall positive memories of loved ones today. Some of the dearest people to me have died. Today I am reminded of their attributes and their presence. Sadness fills my eyes with a feeling of loss and departure. It's so difficult at times to accept goodbyes.
When I am at an impasse, I need to remind myself how lucky I am to have been given time with friends and with my family members. God gave me the necessary exposure to my loved ones so that their impressions will live forever.
Thank you, God, for enabling me to capture some of the past - to make my life's adventures rich with experience. I am able to tap into the positive memories of loved ones today.
