Different

I am a different person than I was one month ago. It has been one month since my beloved mother has passed away. She died on March 2, 2007, and that day shall always remain a time of sorrow. In the intervening month, I have basically returned to my typical day-to-day activities, but their hue, their value has changed considerably. I am not sure yet what it is I am becoming or have become since this change, but I do realize I am a very different person internally. I hope, that in my effort to honor my mother's life and memory, that who I am becoming will be a person who shows love more deeply, lives life more completely, and helps others more fully. I hope that as I evolve into the different person I am, that I will "do good" for her.
