The person who caused the accident was texting and driving

In February of this year, I lost my dear husband of 23 years to a motorcycle accident. The recovery period for our family has been long. I found myself unable to listen to the classic rock station anymore, as there were too many memories locked in so many songs. I found WAY-FM and my radio station hasn’t strayed. The songs have given me great comfort. My kids also now only listen to WAY-FM.

Since that terrible month, my children and I have returned to church, both kids have been baptized, and our life is full of blessings.

I think that the most difficult lesson in this has been that of forgiveness. The person who caused the accident that fateful day was texting and driving. Yet, through Heavenly Father’s guidance, I have found the grace to forgive her. She certainly did not intend to cause great harm on that day. She made a mistake in judgment and a life was lost.
