Over a year
Hello all,
It has been over a year now since my husband passed away and being honest to all I am not healing yet. I am still crying everyday especially if I am behind the wheel. I was so busy moving out the house and getting a new house after he passed away I did not have time to grieve and now it is sinking in. I am crying everyday keep seeing his face and etc. I know I am not crazy and I know I will heal in time. I just found out that trying to keep you busy after a loss is not a good idea. If you are still grieving like me let's walk together in this valley of loneliness because I need someone to be with me

Oh Honey, my heart goes out to you. This is a hard and lonely journey. There are so many memories and after being with our Sweetie for so many years, it is hard to just pick up and live a new life without him. It is not the path we would choose to walk. But here we are walking it!!
I have found that after a year of Bob\'s passing, I\'m doing better than I thought was possible. I have to cling to the Lord daily. I constantly play praise music and fill my home with His music. It really lifts my soul! He is my whole world now, even more than when Bob and I loved Him together. He is showing me how to live single and still have His peace....even joy!
I had 41 good years with a man who adored me and who I lived with my whole heart! That\'s more than most people get in a lifetime! So I am so grateful for that. Plus as believers in Christ and lovers of Jesus, we will be together again in eternity.
When Bob had passed a whole year, I got a new makeover! I feel different, and better than I was feeling. I also got more involved with my church and I joined a group for widows and widowers in my community. It has really helped! I also love my job as a caregiver, it helps to try to lift other people and not just feel bad for my loss!!
God will help you get thru this very difficult time in your life. You can trust Him to hold you! I will be praying for you too!
The Lord is coming soon!

I am so sorry for the way you are feeling. It will be one year for me next month. This monster called grief does not go away does it? We can\'t run from it, we can\'t hide from it, it follows us everywhere. It seems like so many things we have to do or need to do are just distractions until the next tsunami hits. Hugs and Love to you, Michele
