For me, for a long, long time I would often look at my mother's picture and say to myself, WOW....what would life have been like if she hadn't been my mom...then the tears start to swell in my eyes for a moment and after the rain has gone and cleared from my mind, I will get the biggest smile on my face and the most peaceful and serene feeling comes to me....our paths crossed for a reason and a season and I have to thank God for that moment in time and I'm always left with the thought that one day I know we will meet again and that makes me smile even more!!!!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7481066555275647929.post-54377228601314878242008-06-10T21:30:00.000-04:002008-06-10T21:30:00.000-04:00I know about that longing and I appreciate your co...I know about that longing and I appreciate your comment.

Every once ...The pain numbs and becomes bearable... Every once in awhile, you'll feel your heart throb with longing, but ultimately, you learn to live with it. <BR/><BR/>It took a long time for me to get to the point where I could live with it. Healing is different for everyone.<BR/><BR/>For a long time, I didnt feel whole without my husband. Now I feel whole again, but I miss him occasionally still. I probably always will.<BR/><BR/>Grief is complex. But dont let society pushing you into submerging your feelings when they come.Mars Girlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11403414048823693159noreply@blogger.com
