A Farewell Toast

Posted on: May 3, 2014 | Posted by: Taryn Davis

It’s come. The time for me to step away as a writer for Widow’s Voice and let another share their life with all of you…to heal and learn in new ways and see things from another’s view. This moment was inevitable, as the only permanence in life is impermanence (as we all know too well…hence us being here), yet I want to share a bit of what it…

Strut

Posted on: March 29, 2014 | Posted by: Taryn Davis

    It’s been said that once we have found the true path, destiny unfolds before us like a red carpet.   I’m a believer of that and the fact that much of destiny (if not all) is determined on our ability to self-propel ourselves into it.    Sometimes we don’t notice our forward trajectory and the red carpet unfolds at a slow speed, that years…

Listen

“Listen- life is really going on, right now, around us. Do you see it? Sometimes I lose it, but if I sit still and listen, it comes back, and then I think, how funny, this is what being alive is.” -Robin MorganI need to start this blog post with apologizing.In the 5 years of being a Widow’s Voice writer, I’ve recently been failing at my Saturday…

Popped

  There are many things I’m certain of in and of myself:I am strong.I am resilient.I am confident.I am driven.I am passionate.I am a rebel.I am a lover.I am a giver.I am a life embracer.But I must be honest.Last year, I found myself challenged.Now, I must preface that with that fact that I live for challenges. I thrive off of them.And yet, when I…

Reminder

Posted on: February 15, 2014 | Posted by: Taryn Davis

I know with V-Day having past, that it’s good to have reminders that their love lives on. So I’d like to share this favorite story of mine:It was February 12th, 2009, and I decided to do something I had given up after Michael’s passing…create homemade Valentine’s Day cards. Making cards was one of my favorite things and with it being a dismal…

Lost

Posted on: February 8, 2014 | Posted by: Taryn Davis

I was having a farewell dinner this evening with a friend…which usually equates to sharing our thoughts on life and all that it teaches/has taught us thus far.At one point during our conversation, he looked at me and said, “Taryn, there was a quote from a book that changed my life. I want to share it and I want you to absorb it.”Intense!That was…

O

I recently came across this quote and found it spot on! Even nearly 7 years later, I find others questioning my choices (new and old) on how I have not only survived Micheal’s death, but chosen to thrive, grow and live afterwards. It made me realize that although Clementine hit the mark, she forgot a necessary factor. She forgot to add something…

Breaking

Posted on: January 25, 2014 | Posted by: Taryn Davis

I’ve been traveling a ton the past week and in the midst of that, found myself looking through notebooks filled with quotes and thoughts that have inspired my being.One in particular, stuck out this evening:”Your pain is the breaking of the shell that encloses your understanding.”Whoa!If that isn’t poignant to the ebbs and flows of our lives as…

Feel

Posted on: January 11, 2014 | Posted by: Taryn Davis

Though I love to come here to share my thoughts, experiences and words, there are moments that I come across things that speak so poignantly that it must be given the space to spread to those who deserve to hear it. This letter is one I found this evening that I know so many who have lost, struggled, hurt and suffered, should read. Written by a…

Hope

Posted on: January 4, 2014 | Posted by: Taryn Davis

Hope is the feeling we have that the feeling we have is not permanent.   ~Mignon McLaughlin     It’s a new year and, with that, I’d like to rewind to the beginning years of Michael’s death.   I dreaded a new year.   One in which he hadn’t lived.   He hadn’t existed.  A year in which I couldn’t even refer to the year before of him being…

8

Posted on: December 28, 2013 | Posted by: Taryn Davis

  12.23.13 Today marks 8. 8 years since the most remarkable man chose me to spend the rest of his life with….and he did…if only for a year and a half in flesh. I prepped the night before…jotting down what great deeds I would do, not only in commemoration of this special day, but the people and universe that surround and house the spirit and…

“A song can take you back instantly to a moment, or a place, or even a person. No matter what else has changed in you or the world, that one song stays the same, just like that moment. Which is pretty amazing, when you actually think about it.” -Sarah DessenThis Monday will mark our 8 year wedding anniversary. As I’ve said over the years, I’ve…
