Thank you Dearest Jill,
I had only 17 months together as a married couple. We were still honeymooning when my husband went into God's arms.
I knew he was ill before we were married, but I let my heart be loved by the most wonderful person on this planet (well, tied with all of your honeys) and we dated for almost a year.
I can only remember how much happiness I had with my Roy during dating, preparing for our wedding, our pre wedding parties, the gift openings, the little arguements over who to invite, but, mostly, the joy in his eyes when we said I do to each other....
I am very sorry you didn't get a chance to know that I do, but please know in your heart, Rob loved you so very much. He took that love with him, draining you from its life force, which is why you feel like you are falling apart. Your heart is missing a huge chunk that was filled by Rob. Now, you have to find a way to refill that emptiness, with memories, the joys of dating, the minutes you'd catch him just looking at you when he thought you weren't looking, and the special moments when you were holding hands, or just sitting next to him, feeling sooooo comfortable listening to his heartbeat.
Jill there are no words of wisdom, I have, but only that the love you dared to share with Rob, will never be lost. As you said in the words you quoted, Love NEVER ends.
So, I extend my arms out to hold you, you can cry on my shoulder, and we are here for you, dear Jill.
May Rob's memories touch your heart, and may you feel God's healing presence so that your pain can be eased.
Lovingly,
Judith
