Hi, sevinofnine. I’m nineoftwelve. We seems to share quite a bit in common. My husband of almost 32 years died 17 months ago. I’m lonely but almost get sick at the thought of being with anybody but him. Something I learned after our first child was stillborn at 42 weeks: no matter how many other children you have none of them replace the one you lost. They give their own joy but they can’t take away the sorrow.
I pray for this woman and her daughter. Sounds like they lost a great man, and the cost of great love is great sorrow.
I’m sorry for your loss but I’m glad you have the strength you need.
I know you were not posting to me, but I am sorry to hear about the loss of your husband.
Bless you and thank you for the kind words. I agree 100%. Those of us fortunate to find a soulmate couldn’t do with another. I’m very sorry for your loss as well. 17 months is quite early on in this new life we now live. Took me 2 1/2 years to even want to live any longer, but I found a real church thanks to what I know was divine intervention because I sure wasn’t looking for one. This church teaches the gospel ( not some get rich place or holy roller rock show sort ) and the people are lovely. Do they have problems? Oh lots! But they hold one another up and did the same for me. Now I finally have a relationship with God which opened my eyes and changed everything.
Do I miss Mike? Every single day. But the grief becomes less intense and one learns to deal with it better over time. My pastor lost his 1st wife to a car accident and told me it never really goes away. But trusting God will keep us and provide is the best thing we can do. He is right.
God bless you friend. I hope you find peace and joy again in time. I believe you will.
