forgot

[shannisrules]

i forgot my step sisters death anniversary, its been one year on from tomorrow, i didnt know until i was reminded now i feel REALLY bad does it make me a bad person for forgetting it?

Of course it doesn't. In fact, it can be a very positive sign that you have moved on. And rather than having the memory of her passing living on in your brain, you have the memory of her life pulsing through your heart.

Give thanks for the memories you hold dear and celebrate her memory, not her passing.

I wish you peace within your heart

you obviously havent forgotten it because its today and you mentioned it yesterday. im sure she wouldnt have wanted you to be thinking about her all the time.

Of course not. You remembered her and that's a good thing.
You are living life and she would be happy for that. Life is meant to be lived!

No, you are not a bad person and shouldn't feel guilty. Your grief and how you deal with it and what you choose to remember is an entirely personal thing. I'm sure you think of your step sister often, if not everyday, there's no need then for you to feel you must think of her on one specific day, the day of her death, if it doesn't have any benefit to you.

I wish you and your family strength and happiness
