I came across an article today about the power of one. While reading it, one paragraph really stuck out to me. I believe it is how we could best describe why we have the desire to help other families who lose children to stillbirth and why we're still driven to expand our support by creating a foundation in Catherine's memory. The paragraph is as follows:
The personal anguish is great, but more often it is of the sort that most of us experience during the course of simply living fully. The key lies not in our suffering, but in our ability to use it to connect with the pain of others. Held poorly, our torment seals us off from others or disables us; held well, awareness of our own pain enables us to resonate with that of others and work toward the healing of the whole community.
Thanks for reading and again, thanks to all of you who support our drive.
