Thank you for remembering.
It has been a hard time. The second year was harder than the first, in ways. Hard to believe...still.
I miss Denise every moment. I still visit her grave with roses once a week. I have dated but nothing serious. Just have to keep on keeping on.
Still struggling with my beliefs. I want to believe so very much. I search and search...it is exhausting.
I attribute good things that happen to me to her. Maybe I am silly. Maybe I am just being human.
When I find a dime on the street...I think of Denise and this group.
Thanks again for remembering. The best to everyone. May you find peace.

Hi Bob - I've found that the second year after a great loss is always more difficult and I think it's because the shock has worn off and the harsh reality has set in. It's also a time for reflection and with a lot of soul searching or 'grief work' can be a path to the beginning of healing our hearts. Know I understand.
Due to my life's experiences, my beliefs have changed drastically over the years. In fact, with each loss there is growth.
If you feel it's true, it probably is. Follow your heart. It doesn't lie.
Thanks so much for the update on how you've been doing. I think of you often and also, your precious Denise.
Sending love & big hugs,
(((((((((Bob)))))))))
