In 2007, I began my original website, Sonshine's Haven. In 2007, it was turned into a blog and used to keep family updated on my first husband's fight with liver cancer. He passed away November of 2009. We were married for 34+ wonderful years and this journals some of that grief process I've gone through.

I have since remarried another widower, but Mike is missed dearly, and will always be a big part of my life.

At times, all of us will be called to act as witnesses to the suffering of another. We will be unable to affect the outcome physically. Words will fail us. Prayer will seem futile. And yet, the act of bearing witness to someone else's trials is a sacred sorrow that offers and astounding glimpse of eternal joy." by Ginger Garrett

"Being willing to stay with a loved one throughout their travail, can be difficult....YES! But offering yourselves as faithful companions on a dark and dreadful journey can be an unmeasured blessing." (paraphrased by me)

"It's Who You Are"
performed by AJ Michalka



It's not the price

It's not the game

It's not the score

It's not the fame

Whatever road looks way too far

It's not what you have

It's who you are



It's not how fast

It's not how far

It's not of cheers

It's who you are



In darkest night

You make your sun

You choose your race

And then you run



It's never the glory

It's never the score

It's not about seeing about who's less and who's more

Cuz when you find out how fast and how far

You'll know it's not how much you have

It's who you are



You lose the moon

Then be a star

It's not too soon

Be who you are

Whatever road looks way too far

It's not what you have

It's who you are



It's never the glory

It's never the score

It's not seeing about seeing

Who's less and who's more

Cuz when you find out how fast and how far

You'll know it's not how much you have

It's who you are



When you have found

How fast you can run

When you have found

Your place in the sun,

It won't be just you that you'll find

Has made the run and the climb

It's everyone



It's never the glory

It's never the score

It's not seeing about seeing

Who's less and who's more

Cuz when you find out how fast and how far

you'll know it's not how much you have

It's who you are

It's who you are



Learning to bend and not to break

Living to give more than you take

Dying to live

Living to try

Feet on the ground

Dreams in the sky



It's never how much you have

It's who you are
