My friend sent me the lyrics of a song.
Close your eyes
Well the sun is surely sinking down
But the moon is slowly rising
So this old world must be spinning round
And I still love you
So close your eyes
You can close your eyes, it's all right
I don't know love songs
And I can't sing the blues anymore
But I can sing this song
And you can sing this song
When I'm gone
It won't be long before another day
We gonna have a good time
And no ones gonna take that time away
You can stay as long as you like
So close your eyes
You can close your eyes, it's all right
I don't know love songs
And I can't sing the blues anymore
But I can sing this song
And you can sing this song
When I am gone
Another thought... Sorry I just wanted to share this. I was reading a book called finding hope and liked what it said: "if we don't see the hope by looking forward, past the walls and the giants, we can end up wandering, distracted, our lives out of focus."
I know and have hope to see my cj again and that I am sealed to him for eternity. Days are hard... But I know that with time they will get better. I hope and pray for strength daily. Without hope...I would be lost.
Once again, thank you for your love and prayers.

That is a really pretty song! I love the lyrics. I know you will see CJ again and the good times will pick up right where they left off. Love you tons!
Great post and Great song!! You are awesome Keri Mae!!
This is beautiful! I love it!!
I love your thoughts about hope. It's hard to hope sometimes I think, but I feel the same way you do. Without hope, I'd be lost too. We've been praying daily that you can feel some sort of comfort and/or hope, love. Thanks for sharing.
Pray for you all the time! Love you
Great post Keri. Thanks for sharing. Aaron and I love you and think about you often!
We don't know each other, but I came across your blog and I just wanted to tell you how much my heart breaks for your loss. I am so impressed by your faith and perspective... you are an incredible example to so many!
I also wanted to share with you a book that might bring some comfort during this time. "A Grief Observed" by C.S. Lewis. He wrote some journal entries after losing his wife that he didn't initially intend to publish, but eventually did. Reading it helped me through some of the grief and sorrow I felt after my loss (even though it wasn't a spouse). I hope you might find it comforting and helpful, too. Please know there are perfect strangers (like me) who are praying for you.
Eventhough I do not know you, I want you to know that there is not a day that goes by since I read about you...that I don't think about you and pray for you. You are an incredible soul and I want you to know that your love you shared is an inspiration for so many people. Too many people these days take life for granted. But I know that the both of you looked at each day as a gift and celebrated it as much as possible. I want you to know that I will always keep you in my prayers you sweet girl.
Love you, Keri, and we pray for you and both families daily. We hope you will feel CJ near you when you need him most. love, Delynn
Good stuff, Keri Mae. We were led here from Kaci's blog. We love you.
Dave and Delynn
Love you, Keri and think about you daily. I heard a song the other day that made me think of you "Blue Skies" by Noah and the Whale. Miss our daily chats. CJ is surely watching over you and the rest of us are here to help share his love for you down here. xoxo
I do not know you,
but my heart breaks with the depth of your loss.
I pray that you will understand,
there are events in life you will never get over,
but you will learn to live with it.
May your faith be your strength,
and never forget to speak out loud to C.J.
as he listens for your sweet voice to give him comfort, and to ease his loss of you.
May God bless the both of your forever.
I don't know you and you don't know me. We were both in the PR program at UVU but that's all I know about you aside from your heartbreak. Can I tell you how much your loss breaks my heart? I stumbled across your blog seeing that we have a mutual friend and thinking you looked familiar. When I read what happened I cried. I have thought of you every day since and have prayed for you to be comforted.
I want you to be ok. God bless you.
