"Whether you are in love or full of love for life, love is a part of living that shouldn't be taken for granted. Love is is gentle, love is kind, love is trust, love is warm, love is caring about those even when they hurt you."
For many people, this is a season of celebrations. However, the holidays are often a difficult time for those of us who are bereaved and coping with loss. Many bereaved and injured people face this season with apprehension often in fear of their emotional reactions to what are supposed to be happy, memorable events.
It is important to remember during this time,
not to drink and drive. As I was just made aware of a good friend that lost a
friend on
Christmas Eve to a drunk driver, I want people to remember, please
don't drink and drive. It seems like an old cliche, however we can never hear it enough.
Also know,
buzzed driving kills the same as
drunk driving! It is no different than
distracted driving. Today a family in Weston is grieving the loss of a mother, a wife, a daughter, a sister, a cousin and a resident that gave so much so everyone she came in contact with. Whether it was via social media (Facebook) or in person, she wore her heart and her generosity with her at all times. Our hearts, prayers and thoughts are with her family.
Within a few seconds her life was lost to a
drunk driver. This was only a short time after she posted a very
Merry Christmas and
Happy Hanukkah to all her friends on Facebook.....
Just because I love you.... please, think twice before you pick up those keys after having even a glass of wine.... Merry Christmas.... - Jill Dahne....
