All of the *firsts* in that first year will be the hardest. Just remember that it is completely normal to miss them, think about them, and want to contact them, but *DON'T*. I have already completed the passing of the Xmas holidays, my birthday, Valentine's Day and next will be his birthday. Then that will do it for me. Anniversaries of any nature are emotionally draining, but I want you all to know that it is natural for the first one to be heartwrenching, but it *WILL* pass. Just 24 hours and it's over... Stand strong within your new convictions and know that healing takes time, and that you will come out of it much stronger and far more wiser if you nuture yourself in the process. Only *YOU* can make you happy.

Peace to all of you,

**Id**

Hi id, that's funny you saying that, my mother says that all the time. Every time I would get in a mess of what ever, She would always say "This too shall pass"
