Then...We Remember
March 28, 2006
Why is when you least expect it, something makes you hear yourself speak. You hear how you sound and at that moment you know, "this isn't me." You even sit back and come out of this hypnosis and see the actions you have done in recent past and know, that you would not even want to talk to yourself. Eventually you remember where you came from. What made you who you are and who you should and could be. We all have our moment in life that "changed" us. Many will know mine, I make it very obvious, open and will shout it from the mountains. I will admit at times, I do change and in recent times, I have had a lot on my mind and sometimes when you think you may have made mistakes, you haven't, you just have situations you have to find answers to.
The very reason is also why I changed the banner for this month and my focus for this month (that will be mixed with my normal writing). My father who passed, was an organ donor. He taught me a lot in death as he did in life. I had the opportunity to learn more about and become a part of THE SHARING NETWORK. This is for NJ donor recipients and donor families. My family and I were invited to join in the many other families in the creation of the Donor Quilt. To my surprise, the block in which my family created, was featured in magazines.
However during the month of April, I plan on just posting facts, links and information on Organ Donation. A lot of it is to ease the fears and myths. I will not push someone to do anything, I will not try and sell it, but I will provide facts. Coming from a family who lost a father, best friend, hero and role model 2 days before Christmas, it means a lot to make sure people know the truth. My father was able to give 5 families a Merry Christmas, while we worked on funeral arrangements. However, we felt he lived on, and heard from 2 of the donor recipients.
