In Loving Memory

Today is a very hard day and I don't know if I will be around the blogosphere much at all. My dad passed away a year ago today.
He took his own life and it has been very hard on me. While I struggle with depression myself, I still am angry at his selfishness of leaving us here.
I have bad days, but my mom lives with me and I know that it is even harder for her. We're here for each other, and luckily we know that we will see him again. He loved and accepted Jesus, so I know he isn't suffering now.
