Members Aimee Posted December 27, 2012 Members Report Share Posted December 27, 2012 I have said it here before many times... I can't wait until this year is over, like the date changing is going to take away all the sorrow and pain that I have experienced. It won't. However, I will find a way to move forward and make things new.I loved my husband with every ounce of my being. With all the passion one can have for another. I miss him so much it hurts. I know that feeling will never go away, but I have to keep going. My children depend upon it. My family prays for it. My friends wish it. I need it.If I plan to honor and respect who my husband was, I need to let him go. Alfred, Lord Tennyson once said: "It is better to have loved and lost, then to never love at all." I have had the greatest love possible here on Earth. I will never try to replace that. No one will ever come close. My Charlie was 'the one.' So few people get that opportunity to meet and love their soul mate. I was lucky to have had My Charlie. I was one of the blessed few that spent my life with one true love. Even though it wasn't perfect, man, was it not perfect, we grew into a beautiful family that enjoyed to laugh. I must continue that family of laughter, for him.With that said... I pray that each of you here will find the laughter again. I wish you all the love and joy now and forever. I believe that all of us here are part of a master plan, and even though, we don't agree with the 'planner', we all have our purpose. We have to trust that.I will continue to honor My Charlie by leading a bereavement group in my church. I am determined to help support those who are hurting and lost. I will share my story and hope others will find a way to share theirs. I am sure I will have days when the hurt is much, and I will need support myself; but until then, I will give myself to the service of celebrating those lost to us. "Wisdom is nothing but healed pain." Robert Gary LeeHappy New Year to all.Aimee Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Caremal Posted December 29, 2012 Members Report Share Posted December 29, 2012 You said so MUCH in that post. I miss my husband so much, I can not or do not want to feel so much pain. He was sick a long time and I took care of him all but 12 hours and part of that time I layed in bed with him at the hospital. I sit here with tears running down my cheek now. I know wht it is to love and be loved. I had him for 32 years - my anniversary is tomorrow and I am so sad today. just picking this place to get it off my chest. I also have lead a group at my home from time to time. I have good support most of the time and yet not every day is it that way. I will never love that way again, yet someday I hope to find someone who can be in my life in a limited way. Thanks again for posting what you did as it prompted me to unload this. caremal Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
