Happy New Year

Hi all - Happy 2007. Last night we had a calendar burning party. 2006 was such a horrible year starting right off in January. Then in March my father passed away, had some problems with my eldest daughter and then ended off the year with my 13 year old grandson passing away due to complications from a car accident. Burning the calendar felt good although today is just another day and I dont feel any better by burning it. Life goes on I know but I am having a very hard time understanding how God can take away a young boy's life. I know that children get sick and die all the time but I still have a hard time understanding it. I also wonder if the hurt will ever go away. I am hurting for my daughter, I am hurting for my son in law and am hurting for myself and I just hate it!!! I am questioning my faith in God and that is something I have never done in my life. I know there is a God but when I am down I question. When I am up - well I know better.
Anyhow - like I said, Happy 2007. I welcome hearing from anyone who wants to chat...I am all "eyes"...
