Widows & Widowers Support Group
This community is dedicated to those who have lost a husband, wife, or partner. Anything is open for discussion here, with the hope that we can focus on grief, bereavement, life after loss, and continuing on after a great loss.
Some folks ask how I am doing but you can tell that they do not want to really hear the truth. Other don't ask because they do not want us to feel bad (They may not realize that we feel bad already, so it does not matter). Some are afraid of saying something wrong. We all know that they mean well even if they say something "inappropriate". We have all been in their shoes. Others do ask and truly care. These people are precious.
I try not to isolate myself. I have found support from folks that I never expected it from.
On this journey, I have become much more aware of the hurting people in this world.
Accept the victories where you can find them (even if they are small ones).
Blessings, Peace, Healing and Hope for all of us today and for all that are hurting.... Mark
