Like others posted, I too have missed your blog, your images and your insight. I understand the challenges of overcoming a horrific loss and the impact it takes on us physically and emotionally. It's scars change some aspects of us, but we can find faith, hope and inspiration from them, too. We never forget those we love. We never stop thinking of the I wish they could see or be here moments. Please keep sharing your memories and wishes and keep posting the images of the new memories you are creating for your family to treasure.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2499989633968284173.post-3059852470321478622015-10-23T09:47:30.332-07:002015-10-23T09:47:30.332-07:00Eden,

You handle your grief with incredible grace and beauty, and your feelings are a tribute to the love you feel for Merin.

At times, I miss the solitude, the space between myself and others, but I also enjoy the freedom of being present in the life I have. I wish you well and send you love as you continue moving forward. Thank you for sharing yourself and your family with me. You have a beautiful gift to share.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2499989633968284173.post-24946824590756921872015-09-23T22:22:41.470-07:002015-09-23T22:22:41.470-07:00Hey Eden, I just decided you're my favourite p...Hey Eden, I just decided you're my favourite photographer ;)Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02239953216663352015noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2499989633968284173.post-18992125415190653342015-09-17T18:22:51.358-07:002015-09-17T18:22:51.358-07:00The pictures are as stunning as always, I love the...The pictures are as stunning as always, I love them and I love you!<br />You are living in such a beautiful way, I am glad to read your words again.<br />xoCassandra Vance DeSantihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02057222500390943631noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2499989633968284173.post-34011588353420051902015-09-16T20:54:30.410-07:002015-09-16T20:54:30.410-07:00You do whatever you need to to get through each da...You do whatever you need to to get through each day, and be proud of it, because only you know what you need.You have everyone's support and admiration!

There is a profound impact of loss on our lives, and you are no stranger to that impact. You are developing your "coping muscles". I have wondered if we are powerless in the face of loss, I think we are not. We try to navigate life along with loss, and it's companion, hope. Both become part of us. I sincerely pray for you to have the strength you need through loss, and you can rely on the strength and hope from heaven. Over a year ago I read a poem from Ted Berrigan describing loss and one phrase describes it so well:<br /><br />Someone passes<br />From your outside life to inside.<br />Slowly the heart adjusts...<br />To its new weight.<br /><br />I love that. You carry your sister with you now. I am inspired by you and how you are open and vulnerable with what you share. Thank you & I wish the best for you and your beautiful family.<br /><br />Jillhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00767693779562040515noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2499989633968284173.post-10581065973469248382015-09-07T07:12:51.311-07:002015-09-07T07:12:51.311-07:00I agree with Holly up there!

I think as long as you are aware that you are grieving and that some times you can't bear to allow yourself to grieve, you will make the decisions for your life and family that are best. We don't always have the luxury of giving the loss and the pain all of our time and energy. There are times it has to be pushed into a corner. Just allow yourself the time and space to let it out when you can and truly experience it then. Don't allow yourself to feel guilty or disappointed in yourself for how you are handling the loss of Merin. Honor her in the life you live and be honest with yourself in your heart. That is the best you can do. Thank you for your honesty in this post. I have missed reading your posts. Love to you and your family.Amber Joyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11313281631858841720noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2499989633968284173.post-2017989034200318512015-09-04T19:34:17.977-07:002015-09-04T19:34:17.977-07:00Beautiful.
