Death is its own learning curve, and you will walk this path each day and surprise yourself each step of the way. One thing is for sure: What works one day as a coping mechanism might not work another. So, I would tell you this...be kind to yourself. You will feel a plethora of emotions, a roller coaster of feelings that leave you up one moment and down the next. Don't judge yourself or demand that you must feel a certain way. However you feel in the moment is exactly how and what you are supposed to be feeling. Don't diminish your pain. Let it come, as it will...in waves that threaten to drown you, but they won't. You see, Mari, who you are does not change. Whatever you are feeling is a process. Grief is a process. And at times you may feel like a stranger to yourself. But you will always be you. You are filled with light and integrity, wisdom and strength, courage and love. You can buckle under the weight of the moment and be assured that you will rise again. Because that is who you are. You are a lover. And you are blessed because you happen to be a lover who has found your "thing" to love. Death can do so many things. But it is powerless to stop love. Love will go on forever. You will go on. Your boys will go on. And Gag will go on not only in the rich legacy he leaves us all, but in your heart, your mind, your spirit, your soul. He will never leave you. Not really. Because all that he is, all that you have shared, all that he represents will live on in you and the boys and in everyone whose life has been touched and made better because he was in it.<br /><br />Love never dies.Sue Ghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10661749227670056682noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5825214276791029565.post-69866510869159080232009-06-14T20:56:32.412-07:002009-06-14T20:56:32.412-07:00Yeah hun moving on is a process & just need to...Yeah hun moving on is a process & just need to promise yourself that your really ready to let go.<br />With love,<br />Ani's daughter.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5825214276791029565.post-84740189423497770882009-06-14T20:12:32.934-07:002009-06-14T20:12:32.934-07:00Dear Mary, I have been following your blog for the...Dear Mary, I have been following your blog for the last couple of weeks, and every time I read your thoughts I couldn’t but admire your unusual strength and optimism. You are right, the pain like the one you are going through now can never be relieved or comprehended or expressed, however it does not kill you but makes you even a stronger person and in a strange way makes you value and cherish life even more. Fortunately, or unfortunately, we have no say in the way the universe decides the roles that we play in our lives and the people that we play those roles with. Some of us get really lucky to be chosen to ‘play’ along incredibly wonderful people, like your husband, and not only play but also invite them into our hearts and lives. However, the same universe also assigns us roles that seem unexplainably cruel and seemingly meaningless. Like we accept without complain an ‘undeserved punishment’ that we sometimes get from our parents, because we know that we owe them our existence and even at that particular moment we feel how much they love and care for us, so we accept the ironies of the universe knowing that in spite of its cruelty towards us now, it was the same universe that, for instance, brought you together with your beloved husband, and it was the same universe that endowed you with 17 wonderful years and 2 beautiful children together… If we think about it, maybe a pain like this does not kill us but only makes us stronger because no matter how cruel, the universe also makes sure that you can carry our ‘cross’ by somehow relieving our suffering through some other things or people that it brings along our way. For instance, your 2 beautiful sons who not only keep and will continue to keep you going through this life but also will be little reminders of your beloved husband with each of their look, smile, gesture, deed, etc. I know the pain of loosing a beloved one is unbearable but I guess it might become a little less frustrating if we look at it as the way of universe’s claiming a payback for the exclusive privilege of experiencing a deep, mindblinding, overflowing love, just like the one that some of us were lucky enough to experience. My prayers and blessings are with you and your family…. <br /><br />God bless you,<br /><br />Violine77Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
