Just the thought of holidays coming make me sad, because he will not be here. It's so hard to believe that he's gone. I keep thinking, randomly, things about him and i don't even remember that he's not here anymore, but then i do and it sends a wave of shocking pain and sadness over me. I hate this... I just want to be better again, but I'd feel bad if i got over it, i know i would. But what else can I do? I know I'll have to be OK again someday... I just don't want it to be now. And the holidays are going to be hard, Thanksgiving and Christmas, because of going up to visit Kenny and his family. But it'll all be different, because I'll be alone. Never, for big holidays like this, have I ever been without him to come with me. And thinking that he wont be here this year just makes me feel worse. I don't know how I'm going to stand it...

I am thinking I will find a homeless shelter and volunteer on Thanksgiving and Christmas. Keep busy helping out wherever I am needed. I dont think I can do a regular celebration this year.

This is for anyone who has lost their lover to death and you were the other woman/other man in their life. We have to grieve in silence. I can't find any support groups and feel like I'm the only one going through this situationSee More

Assumptions

An assumption is an unexamined belief: what is thought to be true without ever really realizing that we think in that way. For better or worse, understanding starts with entertaining the idea that something is true.  Truly profound thoughts generally come to light from the relaxation of these (flawed) assumptions.  This is where I find myself today...Perhaps, one of the more significant drivers to pushing down the loss and grief at the time of the accident, ignoring it and mindlessly walking…See More
