The Day We Realized Her Love, and Smiled

And here it is.



The final chapter of my segment on Meaghan.

When I say final, I don't mean I'll never talk about it again. I'm sure I'll mention her many, MANY more times through my entire life. And I can pretty much guarantee I'll devote some more posts to this amazing woman.

But for now, I think it's time I let Meg rest.

On August 29th, 2011, Meaghan Rhea Jones passed away. That week, She Went To Heaven, and the World Cried. September 2nd was The Day I Lost It, and The Day I Got It Back. 

Today is October 12th.

Today is the day that I have finally gained acceptance. I dont like it, but I've accepted it.

Today is the day that I realized that even after death, life goes on. Meaghan will always be remembered and loved dearly, but she's in a better place now.

Today is the day, that I smiled.

I smiled at the memories she and I have made. Sure, maybe we don't have as many as most people, but I revel in the fact that I have any at all. So many people's lives weren't touched my Meg. And for that, I am truly sorry.

I smile when I think of her, up there in Heaven, having the time of her everlasting life.

I smile when I think that someday, we all will be with her again.

And I smile when I see someone else remembering her too.

I love you Meghan. Forever, and always.
