I am doing okay every day is different...I am still going through stuff to make room for my daughter who will be moving back home soon..I was going through books that I want to donate and after putting the books in a bag I came back to the spare room and saw a piece of paper on the floor..I picked it up and it was a printed message that I had at one time cut out and forgot about it  read as follows: "To Those I Love"...When I am gone, just release me, let me go-so I can move into my afterglow~ You mustn't tie me down with your tears; let's be happy that we had so many years~I gave you my love, you can only guess how much you gave me in happiness.  I thank you for the love you each have shown, but now it's time I traveled on alone. So grieve for me awhile, if grieve you must,then let your grief be comforted with trust.~ It's only for a while that we must part, so bless the memories within your heart.~And then, when you must come this way alone, I'll greet you with a smile and a "Welcome Home"..the author is unknown I had a good cry as I read these words but comfort it did give me ..Hopefully it will give you the same after reading it...Have a nice day....

Thank you Nicole for your kind words. Dealing with bouts of anxiety. Haven't had that in over 30 yrs. So that surprised me. It is a blessing to stop into a forum such as this. Don't have to walk on eggshells or people please. There are those who have no idea what it's like to lose a longtime partner. May they never have to find out. I try to reply and offer something to the people here. Though I just might get to a few each time I'm on. When you all say you've had a rough day or few days I know exactly what you mean. And how you feel. I hope things get better for everyone. That some happiness comes into your lives. Something good can always happen!

Thank you.  That is SO NICE to hear.  I am feeling lonely tonight.  My sister was supposed to call me back, but I haven't heard from her.  I am feeling very loved by you guys right now, especially Nicole.

I was reading in a grief forum a suggestion for coping. It said to make a list of several people that are receptive to where you are in the grief process. Tell them how much it helps having them stay in touch. Most often they're only too happy to lend an ear, or a few minutes out of their day. This also helps me so that I know they are well, and that relieves the anxiety from the loss I'm going through.

Excellent advice. I have, after 4+ years figured out those that will support me. As those that didnโ€™t abruptly walked away. I always make sure to thank my support system. I need them and appreciate the love and support they give ๐Ÿ’œ

I absolutely agree 100%. That's what friends are for. All of my friends beg me to call when I just need someone to listen. They also understand me still talking to my sissie-one even suggested putting in earbuds so others won't think I'm crazy as I walk down the street talking out loudโ™ฅ๏ธ. And, yes, it keeps those friends close in such an important way. Thanks for sharing

I love the earbud Idea! I talk to myself a lot so I'm sure I can look a little crazy to other people. Now I have a way to look more normal. LOL

Carolyn, I've noticed slight shifts in relationships in this grieving process. I realize that family/friends are also grieving the loss. Time takes time. There is plenty of time. Take care.

Thank you Nicole. Your kindness and caring is in my thoughts too. I discovered Sweet Tea this past year. Very soothing for those under stress. Puts me back to sleep though. It's good to get some sleep. bl (back later) Take care.

As my Grandson taught me, STB. (Same Thing Back-of course I had to ask what it meant). Anyway, I truly agree we are an awesome group and as we all know too well, it takes a village. I am so grateful for our village!. Thanks again for your thoughts.
