It's been 6 years since I have seen my sister. I think in a lot of ways it gets harder each year. I feel like I am forgetting so many things about her. I feel my memory is fading. I hate it. This year seems especially hard because the days match up with the year she died. The worst phone call of my life on Thursday, and the unimaginable death of my beautiful sister on Sunday. I hate that she is gone. I miss her so much. I am grateful for the faith I do have, that I will see her again. I was reading in the new Teachings of Presidents of the Church, and Matthew Cowley said this quote at George Albert Smith's funeral. I think it fits my sister perfectly.
"We can't honor a life like this with words. They are not adequate. There is only one way to honor (her) virtue, his sweetness of character, (her) great qualities of love, and that is with our deeds.... Let us all be a little more forgiving, a little more tender in our associations with each other, a little more considerate of one another, a little more generous of each other's feelings."
Miss you Talia. I hope to honor your life, by improving mine. Love you.
