If I could do anything over again
It would be to spend more time with you
But that’s not how things work in this thing called life
I guess we did all we were meant to do
But…
I would have reached out to you more often
I would have suggested we meet for dinner or a drink
I would have stopped holding grudges and anger inside
I would have fought harder to keep our relationship in sync
I would have opened the door instead of leaving it closed
I would have told you I love you a little bit more

We all take for granted
Each hour and day
We assume we have more
And we always say…
"Let’s do it tomorrow, or some other day"
But there might not be a tomorrow
or some other day
So let's make the most of right now
Let's do that today

I don’t want to do it all over again
I don’t want to lose what we had
I don’t want to sit with regret in my heart
I no longer want to be sad

Instead, I will visit the place in my heart
Where all of our memories are stored
I will smile and laugh, and I am sure I will cry
And I will always wish there were more

I don't want to do anything over again
I don't think it would change a thing
I will make more effort to enjoy right now
Not wondering what tomorrow might bring

My gratitude cup is filled to the brim
Of the times I did have with you
And for that I will always be thankful
I hope you are feeling that too

HOPE does not end when a person chooses hospice care - 💕

Hope.

I’ve never seen hope as a problem. In fact, I welcome it, because hope is often the only thing that helps someone get through the uncertainty of dying. People hope for more time, for less pain, for one more good day. They hope to see someone they love again, to be remembered, to not be afraid. And none of that needs to be extinguished just because the body is declining.

It is never my intention to put out that spark of light in someone’s eyes. My role isn’t to correct or confront what they believe might still be possible. My role is to stand beside them, gently helping them prepare while still leaving room for their hope to breathe. Because hope changes shape, it doesn’t always vanish. And when we honor that shift, we give people space to be human.

So if you are holding out hope, I want you to know, that it is okay. It doesn’t mean you are in denial. It means you love deeply. And sometimes, love sounds like “I’m still hoping.”

"The reality is you will grieve forever. You will not get over the loss of a loved one. You will learn to live with it. You will heal and you will rebuild yourself around the loss you have suffered. You will be whole again but you will never the same again. Nor should you be same nor should you want to be." - Dr. Elisabeth Kubler-Ross💕
