What's this about?

I am Shannon and my husband is Chris. This is a place to share and process struggles related to miscarriages, eating disorders, and Shannon's struggle with sexual abuse. We have found that joy, exempt of Christ, is often bittersweet in this life. We look forward to heaven where sweetness will abound and bitterness will be gone.

Hello, Goodbye by Michael W. Smith

Here is another song I found that I really like. It's called Hello, Goodbye by Michael W. Smith. It's for a baby named Noah. But other than the specificity of the name,  I feel as though I can really relate to the lyrics. Here's a YouTube link: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PoQlMmwH-Is

Hello, Goodbye (Michael W. Smith)


Where's the navigator of your destiny
Where is the dealer of this hand
Who can explain
Life and it's brevity
'Cause there is nothing here
That I can understand
You and I
Have barely met
And I just don't want to let go of you yet


Chorus: Noah, hello, good-bye
I'll see you on the other side
Noah, sweet child of mine
I'll see you on the other side


And so I hold your tiny hand in mine
For the hardest thing I've ever had to face
Heaven calls for you
Before it calls for me
When you get there save me a place
A place where I can share your smile
And I can hold you for more than just awhile

As I'm listening to it right now, watching this video I posted, I can't help but cry. My heart hurts and it doesn't feel like I will ever put this behind me.

~Shannon
