I lost my father on 12-29-08 also and I know exactly how you feel. You describe a lot of how I've been feeling too. My dad was so full of life, so happy, a wonderful dad, grandfather, he was just perfect. He was my best friend and I feel so incredibly empty. The sadness just doesn't ease and everywhere I go something reminds me of him. I cannot listen to music either...even if its music he didn't like or listen to. Everyone says it gets easier, but when? He was only 66 and died suddenly. I too question why God takes the good ones...I find myself praying for a sign that he's okay. I wish I could say something to make you feel better but there's just nothing anyone can say. Sometimes I read about near death experiences and it makes me feel better temporarily. I wish you the best and maybe with each day we will have a tiny bit of peace. I also think how lucky I was to have had him in my life for 40 years. You are incredibly lucky to have had a wonderful marriage for 40 years--thats so rare nowadays. I do know that they would not want us to be unhappy BUT its hard i know. It makes me feel helpless because theres nothing I can do to stop the pain and hurt. I just go hour by hour...day by day but sometimes the sorrow hits me like a ton of bricks and it's overwhelming. Good luck and I hope you have minutes, hours, and eventually days of happiness.
