People feel like they are helping when they say things like “time will heal,” or “God needed him more than you,” or “you’ll get through it because you’re a strong person,” Or the big one, “in time you’ll find someone new to love and share your life with.”
It’s clear, that although they mean well, the people who give such advice have not experienced grief from the death of someone they love to the depths of their soul.
Sunday is the day of the week my love's beautiful heart stopped beating. December 8th is one year and 6 months that you've been gone from me. The sun rises each morning and as I open my eyes... then.....I remember and my heart breaks all over again.
It has been two and a half years since my husband was called home to Heaven. During this time, I have been asked many times, by many people if I have begun to move on or move forward with my life. It puzzles me as to what this really means. The life I had was a WE that suddenly became an I. How does one begin to make that transition…. HE IS STILL MY HUSBAND.
