I somehow thought that after the first anniversary of Christopher's passing that this would somehow get easier, but that's not the case at all. The last couple of weeks have been the hardest yet. I've been having nightmares and back to crying daily. I'm also losing my focus and can't as clearly as I use to.

I try not to talk about it too much at home because it's all so negative and I hate even her myself whine. I will continue to remain focused on the positive and rely on my beliefs. This is just much harder than I ever imagined.

Republican Debate - Abortion Mini-Rant

The Constitution clearly states that you need to separate Church and State so why are they still debating the pro-life / pro-choice issue? I’m listening to the Republican debate and these candidates want to play God. They are saying they are pro-life but will allow an abortion in cases of rape or incest, etc. That’s a contradiction. You’re telling me it’s ok to have an abortion under the terms that you deem ok? Because that sounds a lot like you are letting your church into the constitution. If you gave our young women options at a young age and didn’t just teach abstinence as a solution, you wouldn’t even have to have this debate.
