I Believe Life Is About The Journey Not The Destination
Life is for the living! Live it all of the way!
I'm dedicating this day to Bill Campbell, Sr.
I write this to anyone who has, had or have thoughts of removing themselves from the lives of the people who love you! Think again before you try anything that takes you permanently from the earth as you.! You are loved beyond measure! Nothing can or will ever replace you! Death is a permanent thing!
Thirty years ago today Bill passed away. While he attempted to take his own life, it did not work as they found him in time, where he was rushed to the hospital in an attempt to keep him alive. He passed away six hours later due to a heart attack.
The pain his children and I endured was more than we thought we could handle at times. Billy, Jr. Passed nineteen years later. I can only imagine what he felt like living his short life without his dad. Kacie and Billy, in my opinion had seen more heartache and emotional pain than any child should have to bear.
Losing a loved one is the hardest thing most people endure in life, especially children whose parent or parents pass without even getting to know them.
What kind of pain is one having that's so unbearable that they take their lives? I can only say from my own experiences that when anyone is going through such pain, there seems to be no one around that understand or can comfort them so they don't take their lives. There are people around but the pain seems to be more. Love them and don't stop til they become well again!
For me, I had a faith that sustained me though at times that was even tested to the max. Wanting to stay in this world was the thought I kept thinking about even though my thoughts to leave seemed to be louder than my thoughts to stay.
As I am here still to tell my story of how I overcame, others have not been so lucky. If you have a loved one or are one yourself who doesn't see any other way but leaving please think twice.
There are many people in this world, even if they seem to be strangers to you, that will help you find your way.
This Too Shall Pass!
Your time will come when it's meant to, in whatever way it's supposed to. I don't think that taking your life is one of those times.
Find ways and people who will listen to your emotional pain and keep looking until you find one who will bring comfort to you. I went through hundreds of people, personal and professional until I finally trusted enough in myself that nothing in this world is worth taking a life for.
I'm celebrating Bill, Sr. today for the joy and the children he gave to me. I'm celebrating the memory I have of him of those two and a half years he spent with his children. I'm celebrating today his children he gave to me and the joy they have brought to my life and so many others in so many Beautiful ways. Try and see the beauty in yourself and others and let the thoughts that bring you emotional pain go. Acknowledge it, release it and think good thoughts in its place!
Sending thoughts of Love to everyone and to all of Creation as we are "All Connected" in one way or another.
Peace! <3 :)
The pain was too much for him and I now see that with love, wisdom, discernment and faith he may have had a better chance of surviving his pain. Don't stay in silence, be heard!
