The year passed. Time kept moving along no matter how much I begged it go back. There were times I wanted it to stop all together. Time is stubborn though, it just keeps meandering. Through the tears, the frustration, the moments of clarity & memory triggers of Dom, time had a plan all along.
Looking back over the past year I find myself still with a hurt I thought would have healed more that it has. I’m sure some of you can relate, while others, thankfully, have really nursed themselves better. No matter what my relationship with time & healing has been over the year, I realize that Dom & his Bring It legacy has born such a wonderful life of its own.
I never thought things would be ok again, for any of us, but time likes to play tricks. Once we all said our goodbyes to Dom look what happened…marriages, new jobs, pregnancies, marathons, births, tattoos, remissions, Laker Championships, relocations, South America, triathlons, engagements. All that magic in one year! The same year I thought time was working against me; it actually was working for me & everyone I love.
As everyone who loved Dom, I wish time could go back & I have one more disease-free day with him. One more barrel laugh. One more drawing. One more football game or run. All the wishing is saved for the fountains & candles though. What I know is I won’t have those “one mores” with Dom ever again, but with the lifestyle of Bring It, I have Dom with me every day. Time isn’t going to take that from me. If I can have another year where more beauty plays out in the lives of all those I love I will have another year where Dom lives on.
Thank you to everyone who lives Bring It. Any pain you felt today will pass with time (I am confident it is on our side). I love you all & hope your lives are living up to your expectations because looking back over my last year, I can say mine is. Much love…M
Bring It. Live It.
