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.
I have enjoyed many of the great sayings that have been posted on here and thought we would enjoy it if everyone else who has a great saying would share it with us. Two of the most recent have been "Have a great day if you want to" and (concerning death) "It makes living a little more bitter, but death a little more sweeter."
Do you have a favorite uplifting saying? If so, please post. I'll start:
"It is better to have loved and lost than never to have loved at all."

The saying above SHOULD have read: "Now life will be a little less sweet, death a little less bitter."
Sorry for the error.
"Be who you are and say what you feel, because those who mind don't matter, and those who matter don't mind."
"Don't cry because it's over, smile because it happened."
"I have heard there are troubles of more than one kind. Some come from ahead and some come from behind. But I've bought a big bat. I'm all ready you see. Now my troubles are going to have troubles with me."
Take care, Sandra
until being strong is the only choice you have.... "
Or you can smile because he/she lived

I personally believe each of us was put here for a purpose - to build not to destroy.
God grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change,
The courage to change the things I can,
And the wisdom to know the difference.
The farther I get into this journey, the more relevant it becomes...
