Thirty Four Months

It has been 34 months since the Best Husband In The World passed from our life.

34 months.

Almost 3 years.

What have I learned?

Life goes on.
Love doesn't die.
Memories don't fade.
Tears dry. But they do not stop. They can come at unexpected, unbidden moments.
People come and people go.
The heart is a living, growing, giving, humble thing.
I can feel again.
I can dream again.
I will never forget.
I will forever love.
I can heal.
I maybe (someday) will trust again.
I remember.
I forget.
I long.
I want.
I aspire to move forward.
I laugh.
I cry.
I dream.
I cook.
I smile.
I worry.

I have made a new life with new people, new friends, new beginnings. I have dreams. I have inspirations. I have confusion and yet I have hope in a new life, with new and ever changing thoughts, feelings and aspirations; but always, always, I have TBITW in the back of my mind. That beautiful soul, that amazing man... that "Best Husband In The World".

New Life. New Beginnings. New Hopes. New Dreams. New Blessings.

Love,

The Good Cook.

  3. Stopped by to see how you were doing. I haven't been blogging for some time. Just checking up on old friends. Glad to see your doing well. I can't imagine losing my love of my life, but I hope I would manage with the grace and strength that you have.

    He would be very proud of you, I am sure of that.

    In the last 6 weeks,we almost lost my brother-in-law, and I recently posted about it. My sister is blessed to have her "Best Husband In The World" with her when she came so close to loosing him.

    Hugs my Dear, hugs.

  5. Since I've been gone from blogging for nearly three years this is fresh, and very sad, news. I'm so terribly sorry you lost the love of your life. Your words were so poignant and moving and sad and hopeful. Please accept my sincere condolences.

  6. It's been a long time since I have checked in here- to the blogging world in general, but I was thinking of you. The love you have for TBHITW is so inspiring, and I know that it's something that many never experience. Despite the grief you will always have that. Much love to you!! - Jen
