Perfect Days

A strange topic I guess. But I was looking through some photos of Deb the other day when I toped to look and think closely at some of them and instantly the memory of the when and where the picture was taken. Looking and thinking I realised that through our long time together we have had some truly perfect moment in our life.

A moment of sunshine in my cloudy mind.

Have had that happen to me, too. Sounds like you're making progress if the memories are a source of pleasure instead of pain. Those moments used to reduce me to tears followed by a down day. Now I can smile at what was and be thankful for the years he made my life worth living.

We lost so much in their passing, but gained so much with their life shared with us. Even knowing the end, I would do it over again. Sharon
