Tags: Widowed, widowed at thirty, sadness
I am 30 years old and I was made a widow on July 1st. I lost my husband, my best friend, a father, son, and brother. He was all of these things, but most importantly, he was all I had other than my children. My husband was my provider, my protector, m... read entire post
My husband would talk to me on the telephone so many times a day. We would exchange text messages, sending little love notes back and forth all day long. I sit at work now alone. No one to talk to, no one to text. When I close my store and begin my d... read entire post

Tags: Gospel, Widowed, say yes, sympathy
This is the song from my husband's funeral. I am trying to "Say Yes" but all I can say is no right now.
No, this is not happening. No, this is not real. No, God did not take away the only person that loved me.
My husband w... read entire post

I ache for him. It is growing stronger now with each day but I ache for him. His soft lips, piercing eyes, muscular build- I long for his touch. I remember every curve of every part and every mole and every vein and everything of him. He was perfect... read entire post

The eyes are the windows to the soul. I have heard that saying more than once but I don't remember where. In a movie perhaps, or maybe in a book. I wish I could look into his eyes.

I hope the tears of sadness have faded as well, to be replaced with tears of joy. My joy is knowing he is safe, and watching over us. My prayers for a sign have been answered and my faith is beginning to become restored.... read entire post

Tags: Widowed, hes not gone
He is gone. He IS gone. He is GONE. This is a concept that I cannot seem to grasp just yet. Everything seems so surreal. I am dealing with his absense alot better now. My chest hurts all day long, and the tears spend most of their time lodged in m... read entire post
