Ways To Turn Your Tragedies Into Triumphs

Each one of us has dealt with tragedy in our lives at some point. It could involve a serious financial downturn, an event that changed your life for the worse like a severe accident or even unexpectedly losing a loved one. One of the worst tragedies a person could experience is heartbreak from losing someone close to them. I know exactly what that feels like. I had that experience when I received a phone call one Friday morning that would change my life. My dad called me when I was headed to work and he told me that my mother had a massive stroke. Completely shocked at the news and not knowing what to do or how to respond, I hung up and headed to be by her side. Unbeknownst to me that the next six days I spent with her would be her last. My mother who was my heart, soul, role model and biggest cheerleader would slip away from me less than a week later taking her last breath.
